Windows 10: Application that records webcam while screen is Locked/Sleep

Hello,

While attending lectures, with the authorization of my teacher, I have the opportunity to record the lesson for later review. I use a Surface Book as my primary computer.

I noticed that on the native Camera app of Windows 10, The recording works so long the app is not minimized but stops the recording once minimized or once the screen is locked.

I am looking for an app that will allow the recorder to continue recording even after the screen turning off. The purpose is to save on battery life and not need the screen to be turned on the whole time.

Please let me know where I should post if this is not the correct location to do so.

Thank you.

:)
