Intex Technologies (India) produces a range of computer peripherals, including the IT-305WC webcam. This model features a 5-megapixel sensor (software-enhanced), built-in microphone, manual focus ring, and plug-and-play capability. While designed for older Windows versions (7/8), it remains popular due to low cost.
The Intex IT-305WC can work on Windows 10 with careful manual driver installation and signature enforcement disabled. Performance is adequate for basic video calls but lacks reliability and security of modern webcams. Users seeking hassle-free operation should consider replacing it with a native UVC webcam. For those committed to the IT-305WC, following the outlined manual installation method yields the highest success rate.
If you cannot find the specific driver, Windows 10 has a hidden generic driver that works with 80% of the IT-305WC’s functions.
Here is the trick:
This forces Windows 10 to use its native UVC driver. The webcam will work, but you may lose advanced features like zoom, contrast, or pan-tilt (if your model has them).
The Intex IT-305WC was originally manufactured with drivers designed for Windows XP, Vista, and 7. These drivers used an older architecture (WDM - Windows Driver Model). Windows 10, by default, uses a newer framework called UVC (USB Video Device Class) .
Here is the core problem: The IT-305WC uses a generic chipset (often from Sonix or Relatek). While Windows 10 has built-in drivers for 99% of modern webcams, it sometimes fails to find the correct specific INF file for this older model. Consequently, the device shows up in Device Manager as “Unknown Device” or “USB Camera” with a yellow exclamation mark.
Do not panic. The driver exists, but you have to install it manually. Intex It-305wc Driver Windows 10
If installation fails completely, use these workarounds:
Due to Intex’s limited support, third-party driver databases (e.g., DriverPack, Snappy Driver Installer) may list a compatible driver. Caution: Verify file hashes and scan for malware.
Windows 10 includes a generic USB Video Class (UVC) driver. Many UVC-compliant webcams work without additional software. However, the IT-305WC is not fully UVC-compliant – it requires proprietary drivers for:
