How to completely unistal camera and microphone devices on my laptop?

Hi, can not figure out how to diable camera and microphone completely as “Unistall device” function helps while laptop is on and after restart Device Manager shows that both devices are active. Device instalation settings set to NO. Please help me with this. Thanks.

Hello

When you un-install those default programs and restart,the software just re installs the software.. Some people just tape over the camera and tape over the mic tape with some cotton balls to muffle the sound.. You may want to check to see if the mic has a mute setting and you will probably have to do this each time when you restart the laptop.

Thanks for your answer. I did that with my camera. WIth mic it is different situation. Still I would like to get rid of them as I never use them. There should be the way disconnect them from system?

Go to the Start Menu
Select Settings
Select Privacy

On the left side select the devices from there you can them on and or off.

It did not help to solve the problem… In Device Manager camera and microphone drivers back again after laptop was restarted. I have to manually uninstall everhy time I start my laptop. Any other thoughts about it?

All you can do is disable them you can not remove them since they are physical devices that are built into the system.
