  • VN7 - 791G webcam does not work with Win10 app

    After the upgrade to Windows 10 in my VN - 791G, webcam does not work in the Windows 10 camera app.

    * The exact error message is in Swedish, but a rough translation is 'something was wrong. Please check that the unit is plugged and it is not used by another application". It was after I closed BTW Skype (see below).

    * The camera works in Skype.

    * Driver version is "Microsoft HD Webcam' 10.0.10240.16384, the last found through Windows update.

    I can't find any driver here in the Acer site.

    peterhjalmarsso,

    My suggestion would be to remove the installed drivers and install again to see if that solves it, this is clearly a driver issue because it works with another application. I also wonder if there may be an update for the application of the camera through the Windows store, maybe.

    Hello
    If Facebook does not recognize your webcam right away when you want to share a video, click on the eye for cameras new button.

    Your Adobe Flash Player settings will be displayed.
    On the tab, make sure you only select the right type of camera you use with your computer.

    On the tab, you may also need to 'allow' Facebook to access your camera and microphone.

    If your settings does not work, try to uninstall Adobe Flash Player on your computer and download the latest Flash Player.

    other info: the next button does not work with firefox. buttons next and previous works with IE, tor and chrome. the keyboard shortcut for back in firefox (alt + left arrow) does not work.

    I've tried clearing cache and cookies and start firefox in safe mode.

    advice?

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand you have questions only by using the back button in the Firefox browser.

    But I would like more information on this topic in order to help you.

    (1) the back button worked before with Firefox?

    (2) don't you make changes before this problem?

    According to your description, there is no problem with the material since it works with Internet Explorer and Google Chrome. Previous key does not only work with Firefox. Therefore, I would advice you to check with Firefox and see if that helps, because they have more expertise on products here to help you better.

    Hi Burt,

    Thanks for posting your query on Microsoft Community forum.

    According to the description of the problem, you cannot use your LifeCam microphone. The question could be if some settings wrong or drivers necessary for the device is outdated or corrupted. Try it mentioned below as follows and see if it works.

    Method 1.

    Try to run the built-in utility and see if it works. Automated convenience store is a tool that can find and automatically fix problems with your computer. These utilities are not designed to solve all the problems, but they are useful to try because they can often save your time and efforts.

    You can check the following link to run the Troubleshooter: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/Open-the-Hardware-and-Devices-troubleshooter

    Method 2.

    If the problem persists, try to start your computer in a clean boot and see if it helps to check if any service or third party application startup is causing this issue. Try to install the driver in a clean boot state and check.

    Put your system to the clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. You must follow the steps in the article mentioned below to perform a clean boot.
