Enable or disable a sensor
Programs can use information from a sensor after it's enabled. You can enable or disable sensors that are installed on your computer in Location and Other Sensors in Control Panel. Disabling a sensor doesn't turn it off. Some programs may still access information from a sensor when it's disabled. For more information, see Install or uninstall a sensor.
Once a sensor is enabled, by default, all users and programs on your computer can access information from it. The first time a program or a service accesses your computer's location from a sensor, Windows will temporarily display the Location and Other Sensors icon in the notification area. To limit who can access information from a sensor after you enable it, see Change who can access information from a sensor. For more information about how enabling a sensor affects your privacy, see How does a sensor affect my privacy?
