EOS Webcam Utility stopped working

[EDL]

I have been successfully using my Canon M50 as a webcam via the EOS Webcam utility until today. I had a typical, smooth zoom call this morning, but when I tried to use zoom this afternoon, when I turned on the EOS webcam utility, zoom kept crashing. I tried all of the other software that I use with the EOS webcam utility and they all crashed, as well. So I uninstalled and reinstalled all of the apps. Nothing has helped. Any ideas?

If you are using Windows 10, MS just released a series of updates that likely will impact your computer's connectivity.  The first line of defence - even before re-installing applications - is to do a restart of your computer to clear the memory, caches and allow any pending updates to complete.
