I tried your fix of checking 'Scan traffic from well-known browser processes only,', unfortunately, something else must still be blocking all the cameras.
Well, installing several security tools, as for example several firewall tools, all simultaneously or even one after the other, is not going to make things any easier, to say the least. Even after uninstalling, some remnants may be left behind, and that’s why there are specific removal utilities for specific security tools.
Yes, being without much knowledge, paranoia abounds and malware does come to mind when I see all firewalls turned off at will. Thanks for all your help.
As David suggested, this topic is all mixed with very different issues. If you really want a working solution, I would suggest some friend or technician that could at least leave your system in a working state. You are welcome to keep asking here, and I’m sure we will try to help, but the fact is that there is some limit about how much directions, instructions and general help can be provided by means of a forum topic.
Please, don’t get me wrong. Keep asking whatever you want and need, and we’ll try to help anyway we can. I just think that it could be more effective if you get a direct help from someone with direct access to your system (although not everyone might be fit to the specific task).
