Discord is a messaging app that users can utilize their cameras for video calls. However, some people have posted on forums about the Discord camera not working for them. Consequently, they can’t utilize their devices with this app.

We understand how annoying it can be, especially when you’re used to running Discord every day.

Fortunately, you don’t have to worry! We compiled a series of solutions that will help you to solve this irritating issue.

Before presenting the main fixes, let’s have a look at some reasons why your camera is not working on Discord.

Why is my camera not working in Discord?

In some cases, Discord simply might not be detecting user webcams. However, other users have said they have webcam black screen issues in Windows 10 even though Discord detects and seemingly can access their cameras.

Those are slightly different scenarios, but users can’t utilize their cameras with the Discord software either way.

Discord camera unavailable issues can arise when cameras aren’t properly connected or installed. However, such issues can also be due to outdated webcam drivers.

If you see black screens in Discord even when your camera seemingly is available, your Discord software installation might be corrupted. Or you might be utilizing an outdated Windows 10 build version.

What can I do if the Discord camera is not working?

1. Launch Discord as an administrator

Hit the Windows key, type Discord, then right-click on the first result and select the Run as administrator option.

2. Check the camera app access settings

3. Unplug other USB devices

If you’re trying to utilize Discord with an external USB camera, unplug all other USB devices (including the mouse) from their ports.
