Camera just showing a gray square

Camera model

Logitech C270

What is the problem?

I tested the camera under Window 11, and it is working, when I plug the camera to the Raspberry PI3 B, I get a gray squared

What did you already try to solve it?

I try different resolution, but that did not work

I have read multiple post but no sulution so far.

Have you tried running in safe mode?

Yes, same result

Did running in safe mode solve the problem?

No
