Windows 11

Teams, Zoom, and the Windows Camera app show “Camera not found” or “We cannot find your camera” on the HP EliteBook 630 G11. The Intel Core Ultra 5 125U model uses the Intel IPU6 imaging pipeline, which requires a specific HP-supplied driver stack that Windows 11 updates can remove.

Fix 1 — Check the Privacy Shutter

Look at the top edge of the laptop screen bezel above the webcam. Slide the privacy shutter fully to the open position. The camera is completely blocked by the shutter when it is closed, causing a “Camera not found” error in all apps. This is the quickest check before any driver work.

Fix 2 — Enable Camera in Windows Privacy Settings

Settings → Privacy and security → Camera. Ensure Camera access is On. Also scroll down and confirm your app (Teams, Zoom, Camera) has camera access enabled. Windows 11 updates sometimes reset per-app permissions.
