    There are commands that run using administrative command prompt that do not run when using administrative powershell.
    Please see instructions to use administrative command prompt.
    bcdedit /enum {badmemory}

    PS can produce results for the command when it is part of bcdedit /enum all

    When posting text or from notepad you may need to post then edit then re-post to display the intended layout.


    All results were good.

    Well that's all the tests done. The Seatools test was fine. The one thing I couldn't do was to find another driver. I had already installed an alternative driver recommended to my by one of the staff at the Lenovo forum, but that didn't solve the problem.

    - - - Updated - - -

    I've finally found the answer. It is a hardware problem. I pressed my thumbs on the area above the screen on either side of the camera and the camera started working.

    Many thanks for your help!
