Problems and full of Problems - Logitech Webcam 9000 Pro stopped recor

Hi,

Last night my Webcam 9000 pro stopped working and I uninstalled the software three times but still it wouldn't work. I rang Logitech team and they said, it is with Win 10 uploads.

I too have had a problem with my Logitech Webcam Pro 9000 and so do many other users as can be seen on this link https://community.logitech.com/s/que...100005BbamXCAR. The software Motion Detection and Quick capture do not work with Windows 10 Anniversary and Logitech blames Microsoft for dropping compressed MJPG and H.264 streams for webcams. Some sources predicted that Microsoft would issue a fix for this in September but this has not been the case. https://community.logitech.com/s/que...100005Hy18SCAR

Nevertheless downloading and installing the driver from here http://support.logitech.com/en_us/pr...-9000#download does get the camera working but not the software.

Got my Pro9000 working today without doing anything to the registry.

Here we go,

With webcam plugged in go to device manager, find your camera and uninstall it, tick the box to remove the driver for it.!!

Restart your computer with the camera unplugged.

Open the Microsoft Camera app in windows, it will complain it cannot find the camera so plug in your camera and wait.

When ( i hope) you see the video from the camera you can close the camera app.

Open the logitech webcam software (LWS) and it will complain that you are using a microsoft driver and that the logitech driver is much beter (It is but does'nt work) and give you a choice of using either the microsoft or the logitech driver.

Select the microsoft driver and voila! LWS now works when you open it and click "Quick Capture" :)

Also works in Skype .

The Microsoft driver does limit the functions a bit but it's a workaround till they get the problem fixed.

Hope this works for you,

Hi Brother,

I did delete the webcam and driver from Device Manager. Restarted the Computer with unplugged webcam. The webcam icon was still there on my task bar.

I clicked on the icon and it said reconnect. Nothing happened.

Then, I plugged the webcam and a black screen appeared but soon appeared the usual warning. about Launcher as before. I had to close the programme.

I went to the device manager and the webcam was there with updated driver.

My webcam works on chats but I can't open it to create my videos for Youtube.

Quite funny situation.

Hi,

I reloaded the software LWS280 and my video was working but I clicked next for restart of my computer and tried to open it no way.

Can I keep on using the webcam without restarting?

Please read my instructions again..you have to run the MICROSOFT camera app NOT LWS! after you reboot with the camera dis-connected THEN connect the camera and wait :) once you see your camera video close the camera app then click on LWS it will ask you to choose a driver, choose the microsoft one.

Hi,

My Logitech webcam 900 pro is still not working and this is TERRIBLE. What is this non-sense? First printers weren't working and not webcams. I Preach Christianity and make Youtube Videos every night.

I am stuck. I have over 5200 Youtube videos; channel nijjhar1.

Any help please?

Hi,

I did open the Microsoft camera app and I did see my video.

I closed the MS Camera App and then I clicked LWS280.exe programme and it started downloading the software without asking me a choice. After the upload finished, I tried again and the same problem.

Should I click webcam icon and not the LWS280.exe file?

Confused
