    how secure is windows 10


    in the light of recent events in the gaming world and the DENUVO ANTI CHEAT software which wrote directly to land zone zero of your pc bypassing all your data protection software like Norton , pc protect, Mcafee, Bit finder and others to scan your pc and collect unknown amounts of data while at the same time causing problems with video , pc crashes , the blue screen of death or even problems with your AMD software controlling the motherboard / cpu how secure is windows 10

    this type of software is used by steam , origin and others to monitor gamers globally there is a further issue as we pair our devises so in theory data could be collected from these as well

    we must ask who is monitoring these companies as to what data is being collected ?

    why were they granted this level of access in the first place

    and why is the end user not able to see what is being accessed

    my question again is how secure is 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
