How To Disable Access To Camera On Windows 11 [Tutorial]

In Windows 11, having a camera as part of your device or system lets you make Skype video calls, take pictures, etc. Many apps and services request and use the camera, and Windows settings give you control over which apps can use your camera.

From a privacy point of view, you may want to disable Camera in Windows 11. We will review two methods of how it can be done. Almost all modern portable devices come with a camera these days. Laptops and tablets come with webcams and 2-in-1s like Surface come with dual cameras. Windows 11 ships with a Camera app for all essential functionality related to capturing video or pictures. Skype calls, various online services, Win32 apps and Universal apps can access your camera.

Some people worry about unknown apps, organizations, or malware using their camera. Whenever your camera is used, you should be in charge. That’s why you’re always told when your camera is turned on:
If your device or camera comes with a camera light, the light will turn on when the camera is in use.
If your system doesn’t have a camera light, you’ll get a notification to let you know when the camera turns on or off.

Almost all modern devices come with a camera these days. Laptops and tablets come with webcams and 2-in-1s like Surface come with dual cameras. Windows 11 ships with a Camera app for all essential functionality related to capturing video or pictures. Skype calls, various online services, Win32 apps and Universal apps can access your camera. From a privacy point of view, it is a good idea to control which of your installed apps have access to the camera and revoke permissions if that app does not really need camera access for its core function. Here is how it can be done.

Most external web cams and portable devices have an activity indicator, which is usually a LED that turns on when the camera is in use by an app. If your device does not have a LED for the built-in camera, Windows 11 shows a notification which can be quickly viewed in the Action Center. You can pick apps which are allowed to access the camera.

This tutorial will apply for computers, laptops, desktops, and tablets running the Windows 11 operating system (Home, Professional, Enterprise, Education) from all supported hardware manufactures, like Dell, HP, Acer, Asus, Toshiba, Lenovo, Huawei and Samsung.
