    What happens if i backup then format and upgrade to v20 and then restore?

    I was wondering what will hapeen if i do a full backup of massstorage and phone by pcsuite. And then formatting both of them and all phone and do an upgrade to v20 software which everyone says new software will work after formatting. And then restore the
    backup. Will the phone software restore back to old version or will it stay v20 and also will the formatting do any use or not?

    What happens if i uninstall Windows 10 Update and Privacy settings

    The 'Windows 10 Creators Update Privacy Settings for x64-based Systems (KB4013214)' is the first step on the way to you getting the Creators Update. In the past Microsoft have been criticised for not being open about what your privacy settings do or how much information they collect. This is their attempt to be more open about it.

    Before you can get the Creators Update you will have to review you current privacy settings (with explanations of what they do) so you can change them if you wish. Only when you have completed this review can the Creators Update be delivered through Windows Update.

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4013214

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/...reators-update

    Uninstalling it (or postponing the review) will delay you getting the Creators Update.

    Starting with Windows 10 instead of releasing a new Windows every few years it is continually being updated. This means (according to Microsoft) that you get new features as they are developed, rather than waiting for years for one big upgrade to the next Windows. It's what Microsoft call 'Windows as a service'.

    Did you complete the review and click OK on the final 'Thank you' screen? If so...
    Or did you click 'Postpone'? Then...

    If you uninstalled KB4013214 then you'll have to wait for windows update to get round to installing it again.
