Example 'Something went wrong' error
Currently the workaround has two routes you can try to fix it, first would be to roll back to a previous version of the camera driver, second would be to uninstall the camera driver which will allow windows to install a generic camera driver. First we'll discuss the rollback workaround.

As this point, windows will automatically reinstall the driver for your camera and everything should be working. If Windows cannot locate a driver for your camera, you should go to the manufacturer's web site and download it.
The generic Windows camera driver may have some limited functionality not offered by your camera manufacturers driver. If this is the case and the generic driver won't work for you, you should go to the manufacturers website and look for a viable Windows 10 driver. You can use the camera manufacturer and model that you acquired in step 3 to search for an updated driver. If it still doesn't work, there may be an issue with your hardware.
Thanks for reading and we hope this has helped to resolve your issue. If you are still facing troubles and there's no updated Windows 10 driver available, please file an issue via the Windows Feedback tool, or post up your issue in the Windows Answer forum. Steps are listed below for how to file an issue with the Windows feedback tool. Please be sure to include your camera device make and model, and driver version if possible (you can get it from the driver tab you opened earlier in step 4).
