I am developing an Adobe Air desktop application which uses Air's EncryptedLocalStore.
Live docs for Adobes ELS
I would like to be able to disable this capability on my Windows 7 machine so that I can observe the behavior of the application when this functionality is NOT supported.
Is this possible?
If so, how?

I'm planning to build Web application and use the SignalR library to allow web admin to chat with other users (use Mobile application)
1- System admin uses Web Application built by Asp.net Boilerplate (.NET Core 3.1).
2- other users use Mobile Application built by (Qt Mobile application )
So, Is this scenario applicable with the SignalR library, or I will encounter some limitations especially with QT Mobile application?
Update:
Why I want this approach?
Because I'm using Esri QML SDK (in Mobile App)
I am not familiar with QT Mobile Application development, however I looked for it and understood that the language of development is C++.
Based on this, here is a client lib for SignalR in C++. You can use this lib to connect to c++

Also, I wish to bring attention to an official documentation from Microsoft that states that C++ & Swift are unofficially supported framework.

I have not used SignalR before. However, Qt provides its own websocket QML client component as well as a server one, they have a client example here and a server example here should you want to see how the client component interacts.
I have used the QML websocket with a NodeJs websocket server and it presented no problems at all.
Creating a simple working environment should be no problem, Qt provides its own simulator with their IDE, just copy the client example, change the link to point to your server and give it a shot.
If you haven't got this up and running by now, I'll suggest you would take a look at signalr-qt. We have been using this for several years now, with Qt apps for iOS, Android and Windows desktop. Unfortunately it is not maintained anymore, but we've been running it in production apps using Qt 5.6, Qt 5.12 and Qt 5.15.
If I am developing an application using Qt quick QML on windows 10, can I deploy my project and test it on an ios device? I have read this post Developing iOS app on Windows but it seems to be somewhat in conflict with what I have read. The chosen answer in that question says that you need a macOS to develop IOS applications. Qt's documentation and other posts have said that you can port applications onto various platforms with the same code "Code once, deploy everywhere". So will I be able to actively test my qt quick QML code on an ios device from a Windows 10 development platform?
No, you can't. You need either macOS computer or virtual machine with this system.
Is there a way to integrate Microsoft Band with an existing Silverlight Windows Phone application? I have tried implementing an wrapper Windows Runtime Component for band functionality, but that does not seem to work.
The Microsoft Band SDK does not support Silverlight-based Windows Phone applications, only Windows Phone 8.1 (WinRT) based applications.
I have been throught a lot of reading and the whole thing is becoming only more confusing so I decided to ask you some stuff about Flex.
So, Flex can run in a webpage if you have Flash plugin in your browser, in an AIR container (on pc/android/IOS, but on OSX ?) and also can compile to Native IOS/Android app.
I am not sure about the last point.
If it is possible, how can I build a flex app that would run in browser with flash plugin and also be compiled to Android and IOS (and maybe Windows RT) ?
Adobe gives you Flash builder, do you also need the Flex SDK ? Is it doable with the Eclipse Flex plugin ?
Thank you for your help and sorry if it is a bit messed up.

This is mostly correct. Flex can run in a web page using the Flash Plugin, which is widely available on desktop browsers. For all intents and purposes, you should assume your mobile users do not have a Flash Plugin installed on their mobile browsers.
It is true using AIR you can create desktop applications for PC and Mac; OSx is indeed supported. You can also use AIR to create Mobile applications on Android, iOS, and Blackberry Playbook. So, iOS is indeed supported. Windows 8 UI/Metro support for AIR is expected 1st quarter of this year. I suspect we'll also see AIR support for Blackberry 10; but nothing has been formally announced that I'm aware of.
Update: 3/2014
Adobe has abandoned plans for Windows 8 UI / Metro support. Windows Phone 8 support is a very common feature request, though, so vote for it if you want it.
BlackBerry 10 does indeed support Adobe AIR. Here is a link to the SDK.

Flex is primarily a framework for creating business applications. A slightly different component set is offered for desktop applications and mobile applications. Part of this is due to screen size; and part due to performance. A big DataGrid with dozens of columns, for example, is not conducive to the screen size of your mobile phone.
Update 3/2014:
A mobile optimized DataGrid was donated to the Apache Flex Team, and it should be available in current versions of the SDK.
In the end; you should not plan on using the same exact application for both your Desktop/browser app and the mobile app. But, you can share some amount of code. I would target to share 80% of the code. Move the shared code into a library project; which you can then use on both your mobile application, your desktop application, and your browser based application.
Adobe gives you Flash builder, do you also need the Flex SDK ? Is it
doable with the Eclipse Flex plugin ?
Flash Builder is shipped with the Flex SDK. And Adobe Flex ships with the AIR SDK [Note: Apache Flex does not ship w/ the AIR SDK due to licensing differences; but there is a handy installer]. Flash Builder, also, is an Eclipse plugin and can be installed into any eclipse instance you wish.
You do not need Flash Builder to create a Flex Application. You can use command line tools and other IDEs, such as IntelliJ, if you prefer.
Using Flash Professional, you can package and export to a number of platforms using AIR. You can port to both Android or iOS (as a native app), in addition to creating a .swf file that can be embedded onto a webpage - all using the one application (go 'File' > 'Publish Settings' then change the player target).
I'm not sure whether the same options are available in Flash Builder, (appears to be possible -
adobe website) but not other IDE (such as Eclipse) or framework should be needed.
You may want to consider an alternative development and deployment strategy depending on your requirements, e.g. PhoneGap which should offer support for a greater number of devices.
I want to activate the built-in web camera on a laptop for my application using .NET.
Is there any method that I can get this done in visual studio 2010?
The article here shows how you might do so using DirectShow and .NET
But ...
DirectShow on Windows Server 2008 (& R2) is fraught with problems so you might want to consider a different solution if this is the target OS
Touchless SDK (http://touchless.codeplex.com/releases/view/17986) contains a generic DLL for accessing webcams. Some of the cams, like the Toughbook, require accessing their own API. The Toughbook also has a downloadable SDK for their camera.
Are you talking about ASP.NET application? The answer is no unless you use some sort of activeX to be installed on the client browser.
