I accidentally deleted the camera device in device manager

Hi ศุภวิชญ์ เพียรไธสง,

I understand how concerning it can be when the camera disappears from Device Manager after being removed. In many cases, Windows can detect and reinstall the camera automatically.

Please try the following steps:

• Restart your computer first.
• Open Device Manager, select Action at the top, and then select Scan for hardware changes.
• Check whether the camera reappears under Cameras, Imaging devices, or Sound, video and game controllers.
• If it is still missing, go to Settings > Windows Update > Advanced options > Optional updates > Driver updates, then install any available camera, imaging, or chipset driver and restart the computer.
• If no camera driver is offered, visit your computer manufacturer’s official support website and install the camera driver for your exact device model.

Could you also let me know whether this is a built-in camera or an external webcam, along with your computer’s brand/model and Windows version? This will help identify the correct driver if the camera does not return. Thank you so much for your understanding.
