System restore to the day it worked.
I would like to delete something from my registry and want verification before I do so. I have an integrated webcam in my monitor that used to work fine. Then my kid plugged in an external usb webcam and neither has worked since. It is not a hardware problem as Dell replaced monitor and same problem. In Device Manager I have removed the webcam driver under imaging and also there is one under sound probably for the integrated mic for the webcam? either way I deleted both and they re-create upon a new boot. I have searched the registry and found that there is a reference to that external webcam that my son plugged in because it was pluggged into a usb and it seems the reference is referencing that it expects it in that usb? either way, we never want to use that external webcam, we want to go back to using the integrated webcam w/mic in monitor, so I'd like to remove any reference of the other in my registry in case that is causing CONFLICT. I don't know much about deleting things in a registry other than I have to be careful, so the reference to this xbox live vision external webcam is in a registry folder called (36FC9E60-C465-11CF-8056-44455354000} and then in a subsequent folder called 0009. Do I delete the {36FCE.....folder? or the 0009 folder? or just an entry or two within the 009 folder??? I am un-sure of how much to delete. Once I delete that registry reference, I will delete the webcam drivers in device manager again and reboot and see if it only recognizes the integrated webcam as I want it to rather than a possibly conflict with the other.
