Windows 10: Change background !

Hi, I use my built-in web camera on Windows 10 along with an external microphone. I would like to change the background behind me or blur it out! I see there are various sites that do this but unsure which free one to use! The people I send my videos too, say it would be better if they didn't see my room each time!! I guess it would make it more professional!BrianWindows 10 21H2
