    Have you tried F6 by itself? What program are you using to try it?

    Something is definitely wrong as a Canon 3000 is either an SLR camera or a printer, depending on prefix. Have you tried updating drivers through device manager?

    Certainly one way to do it! Windows 10 should have the driver for the camera anyway as MSI don't list a separate one.
