Windows has a limitation that prevents the same camera from being used across multiple applications simultaneously. Microsoft is set to introduce a feature called Multi-app Camera in an upcoming Windows 11 update, allowing multiple applications to access the same webcam feed at the same time. However, users will not be able to adjust camera settings within individual applications; adjustments must be made through centralized settings in Windows 11. The update will also include a Camera Basic Mode to simplify webcam functionality for troubleshooting.
