Camera Privacy Settings Blocking Zoom/Teams

If your camera works in the "Camera" app but stays black in Zoom or Teams, your privacy settings are the culprit. Againly fixes this automatically by auditing and repairing your app-specific privacy manifests in under 2 minutes.

Why this happens

Windows 11 has a secondary permission layer specifically for "Desktop Apps" that is often toggled off by default or after a system security sweep.

Fix it manually

Go to Settings > Privacy & security > Camera.
Toggle Camera access to ON for the whole system.
Toggle Let desktop apps access your camera to ON.
Ensure Zoom and Teams are explicitly listed in the allowed apps below.
