Jul 25, 2019  When your camera isn't working in Windows 10, it might be that the drivers are missing after a recent update. It's also possible that your anti-virus program is blocking the camera or your privacy settings don't allow camera access for some apps. Before working through the possible solutions listed here, consider a system restart.

Option 1 (Recommended): Update drivers automatically - Novice computer users can update drivers using trusted software in just a few mouse clicks. Automatic driver updates are fast, efficient and elimate all the guesswork. Your old drivers can even be backed up and restored in case any problems occur.

Option 2: Update drivers manually - Find the correct driver for your Camera and operating system, then install it by following the step by step instructions below. You’ll need some computer skills to use this method.

Option 1: Update drivers automatically

The Driver Update Utility for D-Link devices is intelligent software which automatically recognizes your computer’s operating system and Camera model and finds the most up-to-date drivers for it. There is no risk of installing the wrong driver. The Driver Update Utility downloads and installs your drivers quickly and easily.

You can scan for driver updates automatically with the FREE version of the Driver Update Utility for D-Link, and complete all necessary driver updates using the premium version.

Tech Tip: The Driver Update Utility for D-Link will back up your current drivers for you. If you encounter any problems while updating your drivers, you can use this feature to restore your previous drivers and configuration settings.

  1. Download the Driver Update Utility for D-Link.

  2. Double-click on the program to run it. It will then scan your computer and identify any problem drivers. You will see a results page similar to the one below:

  3. Click the Update Driver button next to your driver. The correct version will be downloaded and installed automatically. Or, you can click the Update Drivers button at the bottom to automatically download and install the correct version of all the drivers that are missing or out-of-date on your system.

Option 2: Update drivers manually

To find the latest driver, including Windows 10 drivers, choose from our list of most popular D-Link Camera downloads or search our driver archive for the driver that fits your specific Camera model and your PC’s operating system.

If you cannot find the right driver for your device, you can request the driver. We will find it for you. Or, try the automatic option instead.

Tech Tip: If you are having trouble finding the right driver update, use the D-Link Camera Driver Update Utility. It is software which finds, downloads and istalls the correct driver for you - automatically.

After downloading your driver update, you will need to install it. Driver updates come in a variety of file formats with different file extensions. For example, you may have downloaded an EXE, INF, ZIP, or SYS file. Each file type has a slighty different installation procedure to follow. Visit our Driver Support Page to watch helpful step-by-step videos on how to install drivers based on their file extension.

How to identify your CIF single chip webcam (and then find its driver)
[CENTER]How to identify your CIF single chip web cam (and then find its driver!)[/CENTER]
Even if you’ve lost your web cam’s installation CD, all product info, and have no clue “who the heck” even manufactured it you can still identify it! Actually, to phrase it more accurately, 'you can let Windows identify it'!!!
Windows doesn’t need drivers to detect Plug and Play hardware (like a web cam) and determine its Device Identification strings
Windows Device Identification strings look rather cryptic (for example,USBVID_093A&PID_24685&B114931&0&1) but these strings are fundamental to Windows Plug-and-Play and how Windows figures out which drivers work with what devices in the first place!

This guide describes how to identify the Hardware IDs for a USB web cam, then try and find a driver that matches the Hardware ID. The driver must also be compatible with the version of Windows you're running. Note that older cams may not have drivers that work with newer versions of Windows. (For example, an older web cam may only have XP compatible drivers.) But you won't know unless you first try and look!
Update: In addition to the manual search method described below, here's two FREE driver finder tools you can also try that may help find your driver. Connect your cam before you run the tool.
P.S. Note these tools may also find driver updates for devices other then your webcam. I advise​
  • 'If it ain't broke, don't fix it' Don't install every driver update just because it finds one.
  • Only install driver updates for devices that aren't working or you think need them.
  • Create a System Restore point before installing new drivers.

1. [U]Connect your web cam[/U]
Elgato cam link 4k drivers
  • Attach all power cords (e.g. laptop and/or web cam).
  • Plug your USB cam directly into your computer (do not use any external USB hubs). Turn your cam on
  • As long as your web cam and computer hardware are working, Windows should detect it!
2. [U]Open Device Manager[/U]
  • [U]For Vista[/U]
    => Click Control Panel. If you have Control Panel Classic View, click Device Manager
    => Click Control Panel. If you have Control Panel Home View, click System and Maintenance->Device Manager
  • [U]For XP[/U]
    => Click Control Panel->System, then Hardware tab, then Device Manager button
3. [U]Find your web cam in Device Manager[/U]
  • [U]Understanding Device Names[/U]
    => Windows provides user-friendly device names to accommodate us humans. As far as Windows is concerned, the device name is simply a comment!
    => It's those cryptic Device Identification strings that really identify a device
    ..> If Windows finds NO device driver, your web cam may be named “Unknown” or 'Other' device
    ..> If Windows finds the WRONG device driver you may see your web cam with the WRONG device name
  • [U]How to find your web cam[/U]
    => While your web cam is connected, look through all of Device Manager for devices with a yellow icon (probably a yellow question mark)
    => Be certain to expand the USB category to check all devices listed under it. Also, be sure to also check if category Other Devices appears in Device Manager and look under it as well
    => Your web cam will appear as a device with a yellow icon (probably a question mark)
    => Click on the thumbnail below to see the full sized image
  • [U][U]How to verify the device you found is your web cam[/U][/U]
    => Your web cam device will only appear in Device Manager when the web cam is powered on and connected
    => Disconnect your web cam. Verify the device you had found is no longer displayed in Device Manager
4. [U]Find your web cam's Hardware Ids[/U]
  • In Device Manager, select your web cam device, rt click Properties. Click Details tab
  • Select Hardware Ids from the pull-down. You'll see a list of one or more Hardware Id strings
5. [U]Search for a driver based on Hardware Id[/U]
Avoid a common mistake, don't confuse the number zero with the letter 'O'. IDs often contain the number zero but NEVER the letter 'O'
The best driver will match the Hardware Id at the top of the list. The next best driver match will match the next Hardware Id on the list, etc
  • Start by searching for the Id at the top of the Hardware Id list
  • For example, based on the Hardware IDs shown in the example below
    > First, search for the ID at the top of the list. In this example USBVid_054c&Pid_002d&Rev_0100
    > Then try the other IDs in the list. In this example USBVid_054c&Pid_002d
    > TIP: Don't confuse the letter 'O' with the number zero. The ID includes the number zero but IDs NEVER include the letter 'O'
  • For more help on how to search for a driver using the webcam's Hardware IDs [post=741674][U]see this post[/U][/post]
[U]Two final notes:[/U]
1) If you should find your driver elsewhere please update our [U]'CIF Single Chip driver for webcam'[/U] thread and post your Hardware Id and the matching driver file info so others might also benefit on their next Search​
2) as fyi..Vista let's you easily copy/paste your Hardware Ids. XP does not. However, you can use a handy tool called [U]SysExporter - To grab text data from a window when Windows doesn't let you[/U]​

[U]Two More Notes! (added 1/4/10)[/U]
  1. Vista and Windows 7 drivers
    • Vista and Windows 7 impose new requirements on device drivers that XP did not (e.g. they must be 'digitally signed')
    • Vendors of webcams that work in XP didn't always invest the time/$$ to create Vista (let alone Win 7) drivers for their product
    • If you have an older webcam, it's possible you may only find drivers for XP. Not Vista or Windows 7
  2. Getting free drivers from Driver Guide
    If your search happens to take you to the Driver Guide website, you can download the driver for free (you don't need to become a member)
