GoPro Hero 8 Not Detected By Windows 10

There is a new setting on GoPro camera.

  • Go into preferences and go to connection and click on "USB connection".
  • You should see two options. The default is "GoPro Connect", this is probably for use as a webcam with the beta windows software. Change this to MTP (media transfer protocol) and you should be able to access your GoPro from your PC/laptop once again. 


Notes:

  • If the setting cannot be found, check if your camera sofrware is updated.
  • You may need to restart (power off and on) your Go Pro after changing the setting before your PC/ laptop could read your GoPRo
