Hello, Ive been trying to use my r10 as a webcam and am having trouble getting it to work. I have tried the webcam utility and plugged in a usb c cable and it did not recognize the camera and no picture popped up on the utility. I have also tried just using a usb c directly because some people were saying that you didnt need to use the webcam ultility but it also would not recognize the camera on programs like obs. I have tried to find a setting in the "find usb connection app" and changing it to what people recommended, "Video calls/streaming," but my camera doesnt have that option for selection. any solutions?

What computer? What OS?
Are you sure it is a good USB-C cable and not a charging only abomination?

Again, PLEASE advise us of the computer type and operating system version. It's hard to provide good info if we don't know these things!

You might want to review this material about using the R10 camera as a webcam.
Using The Canon EOS R10 As A Webcam - Solved - Photography Pursuits note that if using a USB cable you have to use a specific model that provides a signal between the camera and the computer. There are lots of USB cables that will not provide this 'clean' connection.
