Page 731 - Windows 10 May 2019 Update The Missing Manual: The Book That Should Have Been in the Box
P. 731
The panels that follow this model include Camera, Microphone, Voice
activation (apps listening for spoken commands), Notifications, Account
info, Contacts, Calendar, Phone calls, Email, Tasks (to-do list), Messaging,
Documents, Pictures, Videos, and File system (the ability to access any files
at all).
A few other items on this list are missing the “on/off for the entire
computer” control—you get only an on/off switch for your account, plus
control over individual apps. These items include Radios (Bluetooth, Wi-Fi,
and cellular, if you have it), Other devices (mainly, advertising “beacons” in
stores), Background apps (which apps are allowed to run in the
background), and App diagnostics.
Note
For many of these screens, the “Choose which apps can access” list is probably empty on your
machine. That’s because you don’t have any apps that seek to access the corresponding
component of your computer.
