I have virtual webcam that is available in Zoom and other application: when I open Zoom settings I can see my virtual webcam and choose it so Zoom will use it during meetings.

Is there a way to programmatically make my virtual webcam to be the default webcam of my PC so I will not have to go to Zoom settings?

    I didn't found the registry for setting the default camera in Windows but found HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Photos\Shared\CameraSettings in Windows phone.
