    Using applications to stop telemetry


    Hello, I am asking this question today, I am aware that using applications to stop telemetry of windows 10 (and other things) might break the operating system and causing security issues.

    I am studying this right now.. and even with legitimate license of Windows 10 and Office, I strongly feel something needs to be done to take back some control, even with some risk of breaking the OS.

    There is the school of thought that it's too dangerous simply, I already read some arguments and I am aware of the possible consequences.

    ***
    What I want to know is this, has anyone tried one application to control the telemetry a bit, disableling Cortana, MS store, Edge, the keylogging, etc. An application that is good, legetimate and safe enough? Something that can be tolerated.

    I am sure there must be other people sharing my concerns and who are working hard in the search for the perfect solution for this.. I am just not fully up to date on that subject today.

    :)

    Disabling Windows Compatibility Telemetry - Windows 10

    Hello,

    Windows telemetry inform our decisions and focus our efforts in providing the most robust, most valuable platform for your business and the people who count on Windows to enable them to be as productive as possible. Telemetry gives users a voice in
    the operating system’s development. For more information regarding Windows telemetry, you may check this
    article.

    If you don't want to participate in providing automatic feedback to improve the operating system, we can disable Windows Telemetry by following these steps:

    • Run the Services desktop application.
    • Locate Diagnostics Tracking Service in the services list, and open its
      Property Sheet.
    • Stop the Diagnostics Tracking Service, and then change the Startup Type to
      Disabled.
    • Click OK.
    We'll keep an eye out for your response.
