The first step that a technician should do is A. Reseat the webcam. Reseating the webcam means unplugging and plugging back the webcam into the laptop’s USB port. This can help to ensure that the webcam is properly connected and recognized by the laptop. Reseating the webcam is a simple and quick troubleshooting technique that can solve many common issues, such as loose or faulty connections, power or bandwidth problems, or driver or software conflicts. Reseating the webcam is the first step that a technician should do, because it follows the principle of starting with the easiest and most obvious solution before moving on to more complex and time-consuming ones. Reseating the webcam can also help to isolate the problem and eliminate other possible causes.

Selected Answer: A
It's asking "What should the technician do FIRST" and reseating the webcam would be the simplest thing to do initially. B, C, and D don't make much sense as you should start with the simplest possible solutions first.

It says a laptop's external webcam Software and not a laptop's external webcam. I believe there is a difference.

I believe you will agree with me that you can have a built-in webcam and use an external webcam software like - Youcam, Manycam etc.

This is obviously not what the sentence means. Nobody ever said "external webcam software" to mean that.
