I now have 3 - that's three, III... - older (but not that old) machines which have lost their in-built camera.

One actually says [no camera found] but the camera light blazes.

Fmax, no interfering Firewall settings, no other security suites but Windows Defender.

Two are 32-bit machines and one's a 64-bit, all running Win 10.

An old (like about 10+ years) webcam cannot be made to work on any of these machines,
so it looks like I'll have to try a new external webcam

I have pounded the web from Goa to Woah (no longer a fictional land), trying all the "fixes"
recommended, but to Noah Vale Interestingly, neither do just about all the people who
have posted the same/similar problem report a fix. The warm and inviting message is shown
below.

The takeaway message seems to be: NOTHING TO SEE HERE - MOVE ON!
