Default Camera Problems

Hello. I Installed this app called snap camera a while ago which is an app from Snapchat which allows computer users to use its filters. After i installed it, it became like my default camera. Everysite and app I use, it uses that as its default. AFter I deleted it, it still shows up on websites and meetings. How do i change my default back to my original mac camera. This is a problem because an app I am using that requires the camera is using snap camera as its default. But I cannot seem to change it after much research. So any help would be appreciated. I also researched about changing my camera back, online, but I couldn't find anything as well.

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.13

I think we can find the offending hidden parts..

Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at startup), does the problem occur in Safe Mode? Could take 10 minutes.

Safe mode attempts to repair Disks & clears lots of caches & loads safe Drivers, & prevents loading of 3rd party extensions, so if Safe Mode works try again in regular boot.

Pastebin is a good place to paste the whole report if you capture the URL while there…

Whew, they've changed pastebin & made it harder, but after pasting in, click Create new paste button, then Embed button, then copy the URL...

The important part of the above is...

Workable but harder for me to work with...the Note tool on the bottom of this editor's toolbar, as shown in the image, to copy and paste the output from EtreCheck. In a Reply before you click post, look for this to add longer texts...
