9 February 2021 14:21

ОднOnce I had to give an employee a USB flash drive on which both programs and personal photos were stored. I deleted the photos, but they remained in the sectors and their employee could restore them if he wanted. Therefore, we need a way to clean up free disk space.

However, in the GCam application when shooting at night, you can set the frame rate automatically - it drops to 14 and below when there is not enough light, but the image in the frame becomes brighter.
