Windows 10: How can I permanently turn off Microsoft Compatibility Telemetry?

Hi. I have a laptop with Windows 10 Pro and want to permanently turn off Microsoft Compatibility Telemetry because it consumes a lot of resources. I already tried disabling 3 tasks from the Task Scheduler: Application Experience, Autochk and Customer Experience Improvement Program (check out the screenshot below). However, after a while somehow those tasks re-enable themselves out of nowhere, and Microsoft Compatibility Telemetry starts running again against my will. I have even gotten to the point of explicitly deleting those tasks from the Task Scheduler. However, after a while, maybe a couple days, I unexpectedly hear my laptop's fan running full speed, I open the Task Manager to check out what's going and voila! Microsoft Compatibility Telemetry is running again with very high disk and cpu usage. I scratch my head and open the Task Scheduler to see if the tasks are still deleted and .. guess what, they re-installed themselves again. This pattern has repeated dozens of times. Does anybody know how to permanently disable Microsoft Compatibility Telemetry, once and for all?

Permanently Disabling Windows Compatibility Telemetry

Hello,

In Task Manager, I often see the Windows Compatibility Telemetry process running in the background and unnecessarily creating CPU usage. Can you explain how to permanently turn off the telemetry?

I have tried to turn it off - to no avail. The closest thing I can equate
Microsoft compatibility telemetry to is spyware. The only thing I can suggest to you is to keep your
Task Manager open at all times, and if you see your disk start to spike, go to the
Task Manager and shut it down. I followed all the instructions on how to stop or remove
Microsoft compatibility telemetry and nothing worked. This the
real price you pay for the free upgrade to Win10.

To Microsoft: show some common decency, or at least some balls and help people solve this. Otherwise you are starting to smell like some third-rate organization run out of Mumbai.
