XpertEye is unable to access my camera and/or microphone

If XpertEye cannot access your camera or microphone, follow these steps to resolve the issue:

1. Test your camera

  • Ensure your webcam is correctly connected and functioning.
  • If the camera works normally, close the tab and proceed to the next step.

2. Check permissions in XpertEye

  • When you first run XpertEye, it requests access to your camera and microphone. If you are unsure of your choice:
    • Proceed to Step 3 if you suspect permissions were denied.
    • Proceed to Step 4 if you know permissions were granted.

3. Grant permissions in Chrome

  • Open Chrome settings:
    • Click the three-dot menu in the top-right corner and select Settings.
    • Under Privacy and Security, select Content Settings.
  • Check the Camera and Microphone sections:
    • Ensure XpertEye is listed under Allow.
    • If XpertEye is listed under Block, click the trash can icon to remove it, restart the browser, and grant permission when prompted.

4. Check for conflicting applications

  • Ensure no other video-conferencing applications are running, as they may block access to your camera or microphone.
  • Close these applications and restart XpertEye.
  • If the problem persists, proceed to the next step.

5. Check antivirus or security settings

  • Antivirus software or IT security measures may block XpertEye’s access.
  • Review your antivirus settings or consult your IT department to ensure XpertEye is permitted to access the camera and microphone.
  • If no security tools are blocking access, proceed to the next step.
