Can anyone help me locate the camera driver for my Acer Swift SF314-42 laptop? Laptop couldn’t locate camera suddenly after 2+ years, tried many troubleshooting steps, and finally just uninstalled driver and planned to install it new. Problem is, I can’t find one online now! Please help. It’s a necessary thing for Google Meet! Thank you.

    I have tried the Acer website and nothing comes up using serial number either!

    Problem solved! Apparently my computer needed a good night’s sleep and camera was there and working in the AM. 🤦🏼‍♀️

    Yes, the camera driver is the normal Windows driver and not specific to the hardware. My guess is the internal USB port the camera sat on glitched, which told the system that device was unknown, so there really was no camera to be seen while it was glitched...
