Thank you so much! I was just about to give up. 🙂 It was great that I could still use my old webcam.
Brilliant, couldn’t get it to work. Downloaded this driver, worked straight away. Thanks!!
This worked really well! Thanks. I am using this old camera for my son’s online lesson’s during lockdown as run out of spare laptops! Works perfectly in Zoom. I was thrown at first as it does not work for Windows Camera app – which is not needed anyway.
Welcome! Thanks for your feedback.
please send driver thank you
it did not work with the creators edition
Thank you so much! I dont leave comments unless its worth it.
Thank you. I have looked everywhere for getting my camera to work and luckily i found this link, thank you so much.
This doesn’t work for me. I get the same error that Windows was unable to install it. W 10 Pro, Version 1709. Would love suggestions
Is it possible to get a 32bit version of the VX-3000 drivers. If these drivers are 32bit too, then they aren’t supported on the latest win10 creator’s edition. Even tried to use device manager to point to the inf file and still it wouldn’t recognize the device.
I updated the post..
Oueta, thank you so much for your efforts. The update you had posted for the 32bit drivers worked like a charm. This page needs a link in Microsoft answers! Kudos.
Worked for me. Perfect.
it worked as now my webcam is beiung recognised however i still cant use the webcam for skype or anything amd i dont know why that is
Good news: the drive installed without a issue.
Bad news: The webcam, a 3000, isn’t seen by skype.
Back to where I started. Oh well.
Thanks for the effort though.
@Kevin and @Kerry go to https://www.skype.com/en/get-skype/ and install classic Skype.
I downloaded the driver for LifeCam VX=3000 on Windows 10 Creators version and I can now Skype call again. I did find though that Cortana is no longer available since downloading aforementioned driver.
This works great for my vx-6000! Thanks! But is there anyway to adjust camera settings anymore?
My webcam has a strange issue where if I leave it plugged into the laptop when I start the computer, the webcam is not seen by the computer at all. Doesn’t matter if the computer is turned on cold or waking up from hibernation. It’s not a driver issue as it’s not even visible in device manager. But if I unplug and re-plug the webcam, it works. But I found a strange fix. If I attach an USB hub to my laptop and plug the webcam into the hub, it’ll now always work. The USB hub is not even externally powered. Perhaps the old usb hardware on the webcam can’t always deal with 11 years of changes in the newer usb hardware. Hope this helps someone in case I’m not the only one with this issue.
Thanks, alot.. was so frustrated downloading and installing crap, I almost threw away a good working camera.
How do I get the classic Skype? I go to the link, and it recognizes that I have Win 10 and tells me it’s already installed. I click on the download anyway, and it only gives me the option to launch the MS Store version that is already installed.
Thank you so much with your instructions on getting the webcam to work, as well as Skype!!
This is ridiculous. Your instructions worked like a charm. Then the very next day, Win 10 did an update and I was back to square one with no webcam. Had to reconnect the driver again (I still had it in my downloads since I just did this yesterday!). Should I just refrain from updating from now on??
It’s more secure to have the latest updates.. theoretically
VX-6000 works great! I just bought the newest comparable model of this brand and there is no zoom or focus. Glad i didn’t get rid of this one and more glad i found this site to get drivers!
the archive contains only the drivers, you need to install them manually, follow the instructions from above.
Just like to say a very big thanks for this tip and this site…..searched for ages on the microsoft support site and just went in circles. No real help offered, and certainly no link to useful drivers as there is here.
Then I spotted that 12 people had been helped by this sites solution. It worked like a charm, and windows 10 now sees my VX-6000 as it should.
Thank you so much for this useful information and help. A+++
Thanks so much for this!
thank you for the driver files 🙂
AWESOME…THANK YOU so much. I was about to give up. F…MS. Nothing on the Microsoft site no help nada. I will never ever buy a MS hardware product ever again. This is how you lose customers for a lifetime. About time that MS rethinks their approach.
Excelente después de estar batallando 2 horas encontré esto y lo logre, gracias
I’m working with that camera since XP-7-8.0-8.1 Pro and Windows 10 with V1507-1511-1607-1703-1709 with no problems in all this versions. So yesterday camera no working anymore.
