Britec09 i am a new subscriber i like your videos and i want to say that not all versions of windows 10 have that privacy problem you can make a video about windows 10 enterprise LTSC (i use this version and i can say that is more stable and faster than windows 7 on my laptop).
I hate to be the bearer of bad news but in the latest updates are a lot of the settings that get disabled often get ignored because Microsoft don't want people actually turning them off. It has also been proven that a lot of policy registry settings get ignored also. None the less it is a good video at least it's some form of Hope for everyone who thinks that there is still privacy that exists
What Microsoft could and should have done was to keep Windows 7 going forever. Then if people wanted Cortana or Candy Crush or anything else then paid or free modules could be downloaded from a website, NOT from a stupid Windows joke store. That way the whole Windows 8 wacky town with charm bars would have been avoided. Windows 10 would never have happened.
I couldn't agree more. They seem to be dropping the ball quiet a bit. They have recently gaven 64 bit Win7 users DX12 ! Now they are offering extended support to Win7 users for a fee. I used to be a Win10 insider before I quit with how unworkable this OS was. I'll just keep using Win7.
Unless you are a AAA title gamer and/or locked into Adobe Creative suite, there really is no good reasons not to switch to Linux. Windows 10 is a war on privacy and we all fight these settings on a continual basis if we choose to stay on Windows. I wonder how long it will be before Brian moves his channel to focus on Linux tutorials? With Windows 10, at some point, we need to say enough is enough. No, Microsoft, you can't have my data without my permission (because that's not ok).
@@kumar-wx5tk good point. And there are choices when considering Google. That's another topic though. The right to personal data privacy is not negotiable IMHO. There is no excuse for companies deliberately hoovering personal data for their own commercial gain. Unfortunately, these companies will continue to push legal and etchical boundaries on data collection whilst the general online community continues with apathetic attitudes to their own personal data. However, for those of us that care about our personal data, there are positive steps that can be taken to thwart the ongoing march towards more and more unwelcome data collection. Surrender might be some peoples decision (which I respect), its just not a decision that is acceptable for me.🤓 Peace....
@@pikachu5647 Windows has a free version as well. All android phones come with the Google services pre-insalled. Not to mention that some of the newer phones can't disable them.
Excellent video Brian! Here's three settings in Task Manager that might be worth taking a look at: Go to Task Scheduler Library > Microsoft > Windows> Application Experience Disable: Microsoft Compatibility Appraiser ProgramDataUpdater StartupAppTask Next, Library > Microsoft > Windows> Customer Experience Improvement Program Disable: Everything Next, Library > Microsoft > Windows> Autochk Disable: Proxy
I don't think those turn on or off settings even work, they're there to make you think you can turn them on or off, they always gonna collect data no matter what. But thank you for this information.
Yes. Sliding pretty buttons is one thing. Turning off background telemetry is a whole different tin of worms. There are anti-telemetry programs out there that try to deal with root telemetry services, but in my view the ONLY way to avoid MS key objective of data-collection is to go use open-source OS Linux distros etc., but even they could fall to the lure of one of the world's most valuable currencies: DATA
Another must have tool for that old Tool's USB stick. I still need to start setting myself up a tools USB stick. Thanks for this, going have to get it now :)
Please forgive this oversight. You are the BEST information source for the disaster called Windows 10. Thank you! Thank you! I am so concerned that Microsoft Malware will find a way to deny access to your site, that I have archived your most valuable posts, including this one. Again, thank you for your tremendous support of Win10 users, er, make that VICTIMS.
This is totally silly, Microsoft will just revert the original setting every Windows Update Tuesday. The only solution is to switched to Linux like I did since 2010.
Hej Brian nice video it is to much snooping around so it is nice that you can turn off some things in Windows10. But of course it is not possible to be completely anonymous if you use the internet, mobile phones and so on. I turn off everything also that you can in Windows 10. And annoying just that Microsoft is doing stupid things like, making it more difficult for people to set up offline account so again nice video you did about that. Take care and have a nice day.
@@Britec09 Hej Brian you're absolutely right but it is nice that you can turn off some tracking for example in Windows 10. But if you have an offline account in W10 you can, reduce it a bit take care Brian and keep it up very nice Windows 10 videos.
Britec09 i am a new subscriber i like your videos and i want to say that not all versions of windows 10 have that privacy problem you can make a video about windows 10 enterprise LTSC (i use this version and i can say that is more stable and faster than windows 7).
Nowdays upon fresh install of Windows 10 you can acctually chose to not install Cortana and a few other features that didn't use to have an option to avoid them. At least if you install when not connected (take out ethernet cables and deactivate and wi-fi hub) then chose to install with a local account. Still Cortana can sneak back and be installed later along with major updates which is bad.
Hi there, please make a tutorial video about hardware firewall for home and small business or office, which hardware firewall is good this this situation? Or what is best hardware firewall for home and small business. Thnx

This is good and I did turn a lot off, but some things I don't know about. So I did not turn them off. If I know what you did about windows 10 then it would be Ok. Thanks for sharing and have a nice day.
I installed the "WDP" app you feature here; however, there seems no way to open the app again, once you've made your privacy settings, to adjust them. App does not feature in list of my programmes or on start menu.
Hi, I disabled what you said to disable and used WPD and now my Windows Photo Viewer is completely gone and also the Store doesn't work (gives me an error when I try to install things).
wow if WPD is legit it's unreal. I wonder if you disable eye tracking etc does that mean that windows hello is disabled the face recognition (which I'd like to disable)
I know google has been collecting your private data forever and pushing things down to your box on your cell phone and stuff like that. when you're on the android platform but desktop operating system in my opinion, is excluded you have to realize that your desktop operating system is the platform that use for developing content. it's the platform you use for your most secure data is your platform you use for backups and creating things this is the one safe haven that should be free of spying and malware.
Hi Brian, I just got infected by ransomware with an extension [.reco] which encrypts my files and i remove it but i want to get my files back.....i wonder if you've done a video for that mate?
Can you truly disable Cortana without wrecking the OS? Suspending Cortana is a joke, if you watch the process in Task Manager, you can end task and the process and sub-processes will comeback. Watch as is also leaves suspended mode to do who knows what (gather data?) then enter the pretend "suspend mode: again.
what i do is download a linux iso install that and run windows in a vm without any internet access as i dont need internet for photoshop and publisher the only 2 things i really do with windows, i know i can use gimp and libre office draw but i cut my teeth on photoshop and publisher and i am too old to retrain
beter delete cortana How to uninstall the Cortana app in Windows 10 Open the Start Menu and type in PowerShell. Right click on Windows PowerShell. Select 'Run as administrator'. Type the following text (minus the ' marks) in: 'Get-AppxPackage -allusers Microsoft.549981C3F5F10 | Remove-AppxPackage' Press Enter.

Thanks @Britec09 ! Very useful and informative.
Britec09 could you perhaps do a tutorial on how to delete microsoft from your computer and how to install linux instead?

Running Windows 10 or a cell phone is like having the MI5, CIA or FBI sitting next to you and recording everything next to you.
lol

The only real answer is to go off-grid, but no one wants to do that lol

Excellent video Brian!
Here's three settings in Task Manager that might be worth taking a look at:
Go to Task Scheduler
Library > Microsoft > Windows> Application Experience
Disable:
Microsoft Compatibility Appraiser
ProgramDataUpdater
StartupAppTask
Next,
Library > Microsoft > Windows> Customer Experience
Improvement Program
Disable:
Everything
Next,
Library > Microsoft > Windows> Autochk
Disable:
Proxy
Yeah I done these :) Not sure if I have made a video, if not...I will make one.
I'm not seeing "Microsoft" in Task scheduler Library; am running 64bit version. Any tips?
@@geraldj2062 There is a small arrow > on the left, click on it to open everything under that.
Great, thank you very much
The ONLY way to get actual privacy with Win10 is to completely delete it and install a Linux distro!

You can, but that goes against Microsoft Terms of Server.

dont really have much sympathy for Microsoft,so i am going to take that risk but thanks for informing me. :)

i use linux mint for everything except gaming with win 10 they continually change your settings and mint is much more secure imo
Why not for gaming?
Thank you for the incredible video!

Lipstick on a pig. Msft doesn't respect these changes. It's a waste of time. You can spend all day doing this but it doesn't take.
thx for the wdp tip,, i use powershell and a script from github, but after recent windows update its makes windows run weird lol
Privacy and Windows 10 do not belong in a single sentence. Let us not kid ourselves, privacy can only be attained using Linux.
You should do a video on either Mint or Cinnamon
brian use to do linux in the good old days, but no point in doing a mint video on spyware because there is none, ubuntu on the other hand
I don't worry about Microsoft, I worry more about the NSA and Department of Homeland Security "Paranoid Pete" Posted on Facebook Bye for now Cheers

Great overview. Unfortunately it's not a one time activity. Windows updates often turn data sending back on.
Yes, but you could do all this in group policy and save settings, then just install them after update?
Thank you, you a big plus in my book. Being very helpful.
Thanks for posting this video . Brian 👍
Britec gang for life!
Can't put that in a script so you just have to run your script and you're done
You can
Thanks Britec09 great video.
You're welcome
can you make a tutorial with WPD with a good settings to disable?
Thanks so much, this has been very helpful!
This is good and I did turn a lot off, but some things I don't know about. So I did not turn them off. If I know what you did about windows 10 then it would be Ok. Thanks for sharing and have a nice day.
I wonder if remove just as much from your Google and Facebook accounts.
will try these! thanks!
I installed the "WDP" app you feature here; however, there seems no way to open the app again, once you've made your privacy settings, to adjust them. App does not feature in list of my programmes or on start menu.
What about find my device and location? Can these be left on. Also if I am am buying a google mini nest would anything interfere.
Question. 7:27 there is written "... and stay up do date". Does that also mean, that they will get no more updates if i deactivate all of them?
Hi, I disabled what you said to disable and used WPD and now my Windows Photo Viewer is completely gone and also the Store doesn't work (gives me an error when I try to install things).

wow if WPD is legit it's unreal. I wonder if you disable eye tracking etc does that mean that windows hello is disabled the face recognition (which I'd like to disable)
You sir are gold!

Your title is a misnomer. It's impossible to be private in Windows 10. Computer users need to wake up to the tactics and explore alternatives.
How do you delete it m8? its stopped my firewall and wont let me turn it back on
