    Hi Michael,

    I am glad that you posted the question in the Microsoft Community. I'll try and help you get the problem solved. However before I have to ask you a few questions.

    1. Since when are you facing the issue?

    2 did you a recent software or changes to the material on the computer?

    Most laptops have a built-in for the operation of the Webcam software. You can search the program software and features. You can also use the function keys to activate or disable the webcam. Press the Fn and F10.

    See the article from the manufacturer for a list of shortcut keys.

    Hope this helps and provide us more information if you need more assistance. We will be happy to help.

  • How auto turn off the screen of the laptop when you use the external monitor?

    I don't wan turn on laptop screen and my external monitor at the same time. So is it possible to do automatic screen of my laptop to turn off as soon as I plug my external monitor to my laptop vga cable (without pressing Fn + F2 keys)?

    Please help me.

    Thank you.

    I don't know if it's possible, but you could try to go into display settings and set an external because it is main if possible display and then disable the laptop with Fn + F2 but idk if it will remain inactive if you portable computer power, then on again :/

    Update: how to do this, right-click on the screen area and select the screen resolution while having the connected external display then of you will find a drop down a 3rd or a 4th do not remember but inside, you'll find stuff like show desktop on the screen 1 or 2 to find out what your external display screen number is and apply it to this form then computer laptop screen should turn black as it is turned off and you will see desktop area is on external display so I hope that this has resolved your request.
