Versions before Zoom Workplace work with the camera. If I upgrade to Zoom Workplace, the camera no longer works.

Hi @Jimtech, can you try switching to different Video Capturing Methods under Zoom settings -> Video -> Advanced to see if it helps?

I didn't use zoom since last year or more. I installed the latest, 6.2 on Dell 5540, joined a meeting, saw the cam light blink and go off. Had to restore/fix seetings in MS Teams, my WIN10 for integrated cam.  Zoom settings all tested checked, recognizes integrated cam, cam does not work. Spent lot of time looking, trying, no solution, even Advanced video cam settings change do not help.

Hello @pjrose,

Welcome to the Zoom Community! We're glad to have you here.

I'm sorry for the late response and the inconvenience you experienced.

There have been issues with the integrated camera having issues in some Dell laptop models; this should have been fixed on the 6.2.0 update. Kindly update the Zoom app on the affected device and let us know if you need further assistance.

Thank you and have a good day.
