how to change webcam name on pc

many people have asked me if you have the same webcam how do we change the name to make it compatible with the computer so let’s check that so first we go to the

 

device manager search or the device manager search which webcam you want just go on the cameras you will be able to check that

right click on that

i’ve already changed here but i’m just gonna show you how it’s supposed to be done

and open the registry editor also side by side so it’s getting opened

and search for system and under that there will be an option called as inium that’s hot local key system e-n-u-m-n-m

over there you’re supposed to search for the key of the device so how you’re going to search the key here’s how you going to do that go to properties go to events

search for device key even under detail sometimes you find that you can check that so the device key is there so copy that and go and paste it over there like just put ctrl f and put

and search for the device just click on the enum option so that this will be easier to search system in your folder

and now you’ll be able to find it easily under a new by just going ahead and selecting the enum and

searching for it yeah under this so find and there’ll be something called a straight friendly name double click on that here is the place where you can go ahead and change the device name i’ve already changed it so i won’t be changing it again because i do i have the same webcams which i’m using so i won’t be changing that because sometimes you get a conflict in obs or anything else while you’re using it or even in stream yard or any other device or software and here you’ll be able to refresh it and check that it’s as simple as that thank you you
