    Hi, I am working on an AR project using the built-in Vuforia. The program uses an external camera to track image targets and displays objects on them. The program works in Play mode in Unity, and also after building in the Android platform. However, it does not work after building in Windows. It only shows a black screen. Are there settings I need to specify to allow the program to access the camera?

    Thank you in advance!

    I don't think it supports basic windows builds it does support UWP builds for devices like hololens. But I don't think you can build for windows and use a webcam if that was your intention.

    Oh I see... My intention was to use an endoscope camera connected to the windows PC. I guess that won't work then. Thank you for the information!
