I'd suggest disabling the webcam so that you do not receive this message. To do this, follow these steps: Click on the Start icon on the desktop and after clicking the control panel. Under the control panel is the application in different open the Windows Defender. Now in Windows Defender go to Tools and then click Software Explorer. Now select the program for all users after they found the webcam on and off. I hope this will help a lot in solving your problem.

Hi, thanks for answering the solution. I tried the solution but do not work. I tried several times to his method, but I cannot receive any message until you restart the system. After reboot i have the same problem. I do not know how to solve this problem. I tried restoring the system and then I have run sfc / scannow, but that's not all worked for me. Can someone please fix this?

I'd suggest updating the driver. Are the scanner and camera folder in Control Panel after right clicking on the camera icon then select properties? Now select the Driver tab. Now in the Driver tab, this is the “updated” driver and click on it. By clicking that you may be prompted to connect the connection between then make the connection. After making sure that they have allowed the device. If you cannot uninstall the device reboot. Now windows detect the new hardware and reinstall it. You can also check the website of the manufacturer of the camera for a driver. I hope this will help a lot to solve this problem.
