There is an issue initiating the Eye Contact feature on the February 28, 2022, update on devices that have taken the Windows 11 update.
To initiate the feature (or turn off), you must toggle the feature within Settings. You will need to do this each time the Camera is used.
We are actively working to resolve the issue in a future update.
