Hello,
have a look at this tutorial how to set the settings in the registry: 71414-allow-deny-os-apps-access-camera-windows-10-a.html
Regards, Guido
Thank you for your answer. Obtaining the data in the registry requires administrator privileges, applications cannot have such high privileges, and callbacks for changes in privacy events are required.
