This problem occurs especially because you opened another program that uses your webcam. You should close
any other program that might be using your webcam because a simple
webcam can only interact with one program. If it doesn't work, try
reinstalling it / then messenger with another version. If you are satisfied, please rate or/and leave a testimonial. Thanks!
