Macbook Pro - running macOS Catalina - no camera detected issue

Hi. I have been experiencing this issue once I run macOS Catalina.

I have tried sudo killAll VDCAssistant.

Restart with Option+Command+R+P to reset NVRAM.

Trying with FaceTime still can't detect camera.

No other programs have used camera.


Does anyone know the solution / experience the latest problem.

I have read on the discussions even re-install the MacOS will only solve the problems for a few days.

thanks.

I saw a few informations, even one of it mentions, after re-installing macOS Catalina, the camera works for a few days only.

So I don't know if it is worth my time to do all the clean installation in order to get the camera on again.

Or, shall I wait for the future macOS update?


I also try to contact the CS thru chat, but I always get this. Weird.
