      I had the same issue! I searched for answers, most of which said "change settings, make sure you allow apps to access your camera" etc. but none said to just press the function key, not even Microsoft's own help bots!

    OMG! I have spent HOURS trying to figure out my camera's problem, uninstalling and reinstalling this that and the other to no avail. And you solved my problem in Step No 1! I have had this laptop for over 2 years and did not know about the slider. You can't really see it, so I had no idea it was there. The camera had always worked ... until one day when it didn't. So I've been using my phone for video calls until I got this problem solved. Just slid that tiny little tab over and voila, problem solved! Perfect! Thank you so very much!
