This is for Win7. Search on the internet on how to disable your webcam on other Operating Systems or Version of Windows.

Simple step, just disable your webcam.

Step 1. Go to "Manage your computer".


Step 2. Go to "Device Manager" and then "Imaging Devices".


Step 3. Right click on any webcam related devices and click disable.

Well thats a nuisance for people that regularly use their webcams for Skype and OOVOO. Or even a better solution. Duct tape.

I am serious when I say you can opt to use an adhesive bandage instead to not damage the device.

That's exactly what I do now. I only enable it when I have to chat on skype.

I was under the impression that if the light beside your webcam was not on, your cam was not in use.

I would not recommend Duct Tape, but I do recommend electric tape. I put it on my laptop webcam (When I get on it) and no residue is left on it.

On certain webcams light can be disabled, while the camera will stay on.

it is a scary thought that we need to 'bandage' our webcams.

[Uncommon]

I've stuck a piece of electrical tape there, surefire solution.

I just do what Para said, it is simple and easy. Then again I never really use my webcam.

My dad's Asus laptop lets him just slide a cover over it. Beats duct tape and disabling the webcam.

These should be standard for all webcams, IMHO.

Yes, that is the best one could do if they are a regular user of Skype. I too use it that way! 😁

Or you could put tape on it which takes much less effort. Uhmm Brb
