How to Resolve - Dell Inspiron 7520 Webcam issue?

Dell Inspiron 7520 Webcam issue

The provided inbuilt webcam is a strange one, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.
And when it doesn't, and it shows the message something like -
The webcam is being used by other apps (in Dell Webcam Central), although it is not being used, and its indicator is still in off mode.

The only thing that makes it functional is a simple restart.

The funny part is that as long as I keep it hibernating and avoid shutting down or restarting, it works well, if it works after the restart, and if it doesn't work, at least a shut down or restart is required to make it work.

The webcam uses a driver from creative (CtClsFlt.sys) apart from the Microsoft provided drivers.

I simply can't understand what difference does a restart make, which affects the working of a driver, when keeping other things unaffected (like startup type, startup items, apps installed, registry etc.).

This was a minor problem from the day my laptop was shipped pre-loaded with win 7 home premium, which I upgraded to win 8 pro with m.c and then to win 8.1, but since the problem was not persistent and minor to me, and fearing the company would worsen
the situation (my previous laptop was totally ruined by the service center instead of properly repairing it), I didn't contact them.

I know it's a matter to be resolved by Dell itself, but if any one of you can suggest a feasible working solution or at least pinpoint where the problem is, it would be great.

Thanks in advance.
