How to turn off the webcam in Windows 10

Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, as we know, glues the webcam on his laptop with duct tape. This guy definitely knows something.

However, if you want to follow his example to protect against malicious hackers or agents of the CIA, do not disfigure your computer tape. She leaves sticky residue, and more elegant way to exist.

Press the key combination Windows + R, to open the menu "Run" and type devmgmt.msc. Or simply go to "Start" and find the "Device Manager".

In the window look for the category of "Camera" or "Imaging Devices". Click on it to expand and see your camera. It will be called Integrated Camera, VGA WebCam or USB Camera. Click the right mouse button and then click "Disable."

Can breathe easy: now your camera is turned off. Well, if you need to return it to operation, re-open the "Device Manager", click on the camera icon, right-click, and then click "Enable." That's it, no electrical tape.
