    Hi Markus Hochradl  Please first check the camera privacy settings in Windows to ensure that permission to access the camera hardware and permission for applications to access the camera are both set to On.  Instructions for doing so can be found at the link below.

    Hi Marty!
    Thanks for your quick response.
    I had already checked these settings multiple times since they are mentioned in similar threads as well.
    I have turned camera access on for all applications:

    I am wondering if there is any other Windows setting that might interfere with this...

    If your D455 works on one of the Windows PCs and on Ubuntu, it does not sound like a problem with the camera hardware or with the camera's firmware driver.

    I recall that Windows 10 Pro has a feature called a group policy that allows the computer to be managed by corporate group policies that prevent certain type of actions / devices.  If you are working in an office setting, is it possible that colleagues responsible for Information Technology have set up such a policy on your Windows work computers? 

     

    An example of a group policy affecting RealSense camera detection is at the link below.

    None of the PCs I have testet it on are part of a Windows domain and at least 2 of the PCs were setup by me (i.e. installed Windows and configured settings).

    However, the hint with deleting certain registry entries worked! I had previously deleted a lot of keys as mentioned in other threads, but that didn't work.
    Now, I was even able to narrow down the responsible keys by deleting entries one after another and checking if it worked afterwards.

    So for anyone else having this problem: delete these 3 registry keys and you might get your D455 working:

    • Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\HandwritingErrorReports
    • Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\IPSec
    • Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\LocationAndSensors

    My money is on the last one: LocationAndSensors.

    That's what my registry looks like now with a working camera:

    Thank you Marty!

    You are very welcome.  That's great news that you achieved a solution. Thanks so much for sharing it with the RealSense community!

     

    I should emphasize that registry editing should only be performed by those who are confident in doing so.

     

    Thanks again!
