The abbreviation " VPN " has slowly become established among average Internet users, which is certainly good, but the problem is that people have started to see VPN as the ultimate solution to all problems.

[Windows] How to find out which process uses the camera?

By Administrator
[Windows] How to find out which process uses the camera?

Want to find out if malware is using your camera? Or do you want to know which program prevents you from using the camera while, say, talking via Skype?

Here are instructions on how to find out exactly which process is using the camera and how to turn it off.

1) First install Process Explorer or Explorer Hacker

2) Now open the Devices Manager

Press Win + R, copy this, and type Enter: mmc devmgmt.msc

3) Find the camera

It is usually listed under "Image Processing Devices". It is mostly called a "camera", you will easily find it.

3) Find the camera

4) Find the physical name of the camera

Right-click the camera device and select Properties. Then click the Details tab and find "Physical device object name" or "Physical device object name" in the drop-down menu if the system is in English. Now you will be printed something like "\Device\00000040". That number varies from computer to computer. Right-click on it and copy.

4) Find the physical name of the camera

5) Finding a process

Run one of the two programs you installed in step 1 and press Ctrl + F to start the search. Just paste in the box what you copied with Ctrl + V and click Find (or Enter)

5) Finding a process

6) Shutdown process

It is best to turn it off manually, e.g. if Chrome uses your camera just turn off Chrome (I wrote about how to know which card uses your camera or microphone so you can find your way around), and if you don't know which program/process it is, you can right-click on the process and select "Terminate" (not recommended for less experienced users).

Android TV Box - a guide to buying up to 30 euros

By Administrator
What is Android TV Box? This is a great solution if you want to add a " Smart " function to an existing TV . With this device, you can watch live TV online for free (later on), play games, upload all kinds of files, watch movies (from USB, over the internet, phone…), listen to songs, surf the internet, use social networks… or everything you can on your Android phone. It is usually a cube-shaped device (but it doesn't have to be) and has various inputs and outputs. It connects to the TV via an HDMI cable , but some also have an AV output over 3.5mm that goes to the familiar 3 cinches, so you can also connect to an older TV (even to SCART if you have an adapter). It is also standard for these devices to have WiFi , LAN port (RJ45), IR Remote , at least 2 USB ports , support for high definition video formats (these cheap ones often have 4K support), and usually come with a remote .
