I only did the 1st method. It didn't work after restarting my laptop the first time but it shut down about 30 minutes after that because of drained battery and when I turned my laptop back on, my webcam is miraculously working so smoothly and clearly. Seriously, I blushed. I was ready to dispose it. 😂 I have a Logitech one. Thank you for this!

[@jordanpc1586]

If you were in front of me i would lift you up and hug you. I can not even explain the headache and hours of stress i went through to fix this. This 3 year old video just saved me. Thank you so much!
