Surely, you do not even know that periodically, your computer is working without your participation, is not it? The essence of "work" is reduced to the fact that the system Windows 10 without your knowledge gradually collects about your actions for the PC some data and then sends them to the Microsoft server. It's clear that for someone it's not scary, but someone from the users does not want his computer to be constantly under someone's control, especially when it comes to a webcam. For this reason, we decided to tell you about what a ban on collecting sensitive data from a webcam in Windows 10 is. Since recently, more and more PC users are puzzled with this very question, because they absolutely do not want to be watched.
In order to go to the basic settings of the system, you must use the "Start" menu in which there is a gear icon on which you need to click the left mouse button, after which you can get to the "Options" window, and from there, you need to go in the section "Confidentiality".
Now be careful... In the "Options" window, you should be interested in the column on the left, in which you need to find the "Camera" item and click on it with the left mouse button so that you have the opportunity to go to the "Selecting applications that can use camera ", where you need to go to the" Feedback Center "and already there, you need to switch from" On "to" Off ".
This way, you've successfully activated the ban on collecting sensitive data from your webcam in Windows 10, and with all that, no reboots are needed!
We recommend that you also additionally protect your webcam in order to install a quality licensed antivirus into the system. In this example, we use Kaspersky Anti-Virus, which is ideal for activating its settings to block any unauthorized use of the webcam by various applications and the Windows system itself.
