My Galaxy S21 Ultra just started thowing the following error when I try to launch the Camera app

Security policy Camera prevents use of Camera
I have searched for the error.
I found a vdieo that says to clear the camera Cache and Appdata. I did that and that did not fix.
It also said to show all system apps and open the app settings for Device security. I was not able to find that app to make changes

My phone is running on Verizon and has the Android 12
OneUI v 4.1
Patch level June 1 2022
Build SP1A.210812.016.g998usqu5cvf1


What would be the next thing to try.
Thanks
 
I can answer my own question.
Apparently there was a Developer option called Sensors off, and that was enabled.
I turned off the Sensors off Quick Tile then the Camera started to work

If you find yourself not able to launch your camera b/c of a Security polity, check of a Quick Tile from the pull down menu called Sensors Off. Disable able and take that option off the phone in Developer Options

Same time lol
 
It's how it usually happens. I post the question then I find my own solution.


For this searching, I'll put screenshots below.
