    How to Allow or Deny OS and Apps Access to Email in Windows 10


    Windows 10 provides a wealth of data access to make apps useful and valuable to you. These capabilities, which are security constructs that gate access to personal data, include things like Calendar, Contacts, Call History, and more. Each capability has its own privacy settings page so that you can control it and what apps and services can use that capability.

    Starting in Windows 10 Insider Preview build 10547, you can turn on or off to let apps access and send email, and also choose individual apps that can access and send email.

    Starting with Windows 10 build 17063, you can now allow or deny Windows 10 and apps access to email on your device (PC) for all users.

    If you allow access, users on your PC will be able to turn on or off if their apps have access to their email. If you turn on to let apps access your email, you can choose to turn on (allow) or off (deny) access for individual apps.

    This tutorial will show you how to change Privacy settings to allow or deny Windows and apps access to email for all users or only your account in Windows 10.

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
