O&O ShutUp10

O&O ShutUp10 means you have full control over which comfort functions under Windows 10 you wish to use, and you decide when the passing on of your data goes too far.

Using a very simple interface, you decide how Windows 10 should respect your privacy by deciding which unwanted functions should be deactivated.

O&O ShutUp10 is entirely free and does not have to be installed – it can be simply run directly and immediately on your PC. And it will not install or download retrospectively unwanted or unnecessary software, like so many other programs do these days!

 

O&O ShutUp10 is listed on MajorGeeks therefor it has to be good.

Thanks for posting this. It not only helps the unsuspecting to begin to realise just how intrusive Win 10 is but also enables users to disable those features they aren't comfortable with, in my case like this one -

 

and, of course, this example raises the question of how best to erase any personal information of this sort that has already been stored on Microsoft's servers. I'm guessing, but perhaps this stuff only gets stored if you use a Microsoft account for signing in, so signing in with a local account may effectively disable all this snooping without needing something like O&O ShutUp

 

It seems ok for what i does. You can also run it without installing it on your PC.
