My webcam suddenly not working on Windows Live Messenger video calls?

Why do I need a webcam to see someone elses webcam for windows live messenger?

  • I just downloaded the new version of windows live that was being requested whenever I logged in. The problem is when I requested to view someone's webcam, it directly put us into a video call, I don't have a webcam and so it was saying something along the lines; "your contacts webcam is loading.." Is there any other way to view another's webcam without needing to start a video call in Windows Live Messenger? "if it ain't broke why fix it?"

  • Answer:

    Under the previous versions it was possible to view another persons webcam without having one yourself. With the Video Chat feature you both need one.
