    Windows 10 Critical Boot performance

    I found an article regarding Spybot Anti-Beacon causing performance problems, so I removed it from my computer using Control Panel. However this didnt remove everything and the application was still using memory and CPU in Task Manager, even after a warm
    reboot and a cold boot.

    I had to End Task Anti-Beacon then manually delete the Spybot Anti-Beacon folder in Program files (X86).

    I still see Critical errors in Event Viewer but I am not seeing any performance affecting issues and basically I have my computer back.

    Barney.

    I have used it. It blocks all "telemetry" MS servers via making entries in your hosts file.
