There are two types of webcams, depending on what computer you are using. 

Option A

If you do not see the camera lens, the webcam is off.

Swivel the tab upwards and you'll see the camera lens (it has a red line around it). 

Option B

If you see a red dot in the webcam lens, the webcam is switched off.

The switch is located above the lens. Move it to the right position to turn it on.

Note: If you are trying to take a quiz in Respondus Lockdown, the browser you will need to use is Chrome, not Firefox or Edge.
