You can turn on the camera on your Windows computer immediately using the built-in Camera app, or another app that uses it.

You can enable the camera on Google Hangouts on a computer or mobile device, though there are system requirements for the desktop version.

The Camera app in Windows 11/10 lets you use your webcam to record videos and take photos. It’s definitely better than having to download spyware/malware-ridden third-party webcam recording software.
