Now you need to change the Capture configuration file to add your webcam to the list of supported cameras.The settings for MY webcam are shown below-your VID or PID values may be different, so don’t use those in this screenshot. You can either leave this window open (easiest) or copy them to Notepad (or a similar text editor).

I’ve rewritten his instructions below, adding some screenshots and things I found when I followed them. However, one of my readers, Collin, in a comment on my original post, described how to get Capture to work with the C270. According to the requirements on that Logitech Capture webpage, the C270 is not supported hardware for that software, and if you download the software anyway, it won’t recognise your C270 webcam. You can adjust it a little (see this earlier blog post of mine: ), but you can’t use the more advanced Logitech Capture software ( ) with the C270 ‘out of the box’.

The Logitech C270 webcam is very limited in its settings.
