Quick and Dirty Camera, Mic ... check

I stumbled on this website which offers a quick check to make sure your camera, mic and other computer hardware is working.

I figured the site might come in handy with the increase of people Zooming, skyping and other ways of keeping in touch in today's world.

With this, I found out that the mic on my headset is not working and that the camera and mic on my laptop does work. Now if I can only find where is the mic on my laptop .

If you have Windows, it has built in tests that you can use without having to visit a website.

Here's how to test your mic: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4027981/windows-10-how-to-set-up-and-test-microphones

Here's how to test your camera: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4028647/windows-open-the-camera-in-windows-10

Or if you use Windows Hello to sign on, then you already know your camera is working.
