Since the MS LifeCam is not listed in the Product list, I had to chose the ESP32 Cam in order to submit the question.
Problem: Can not connect the MS LifeCam again. Steps to reproduce:
- Plug in the Cam
- Open the ARC
- Project->Add->Camera Device
- Start
After playing around with the ARC Camera Features, closed the Camera Device without saving the Camera control to a project:
- Closed the ARC, switched off the PC.
- Later on tried same as from the Step 1 and got the message:
- Closed Camera Device and ARC, removed the MS camera. 8. Plugged in the camera again. Opened the ARC and started as from Step 1 and again same message: "Camera Disabled".
- Switched off the PC. Switched on and tried again without success (same message).
What I have done wrong to stop camera working?
Note: Did not use any Windows app related to the camera before I run the ARC. Later checked the camera with the Yawcam and VLC applications and camera worked fine. The camera is brand new, just opened from the box.

hi
did you try to use a new window ? ( camera control ) .
Thanks Nomad for the reply
If you mean as bellow, the result is the same
hi did you save your project on your pc and cloud ?
No, I did not. I'll try it now. Ta
after saving go out ARC and back in . its always a good idea to delete your browser hystory if you had many try's.
Does not work either. Got a different message:
Camera Disabled Error Initializing Camera: Microsoft LifeCam HD-3000. Resolution: 640x480. Perhaps an unsupported resolution or unable to connect? System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException: The given key was not present in the dictionary. at System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary`2.get_Item(TKey key) at EZ_B.Camera.StartCamera(ValuePair videoCaptureDevice, Int32 captureWidth, Int32 captureHeight, Int32 outputWidth, Int32 outputHeight)
i think you have to use only one window . and if you unplug the camera and plug it back in?
All is the same: Camera Disabled.
I give up.:(
