Tip — Installing Windows 10‬? Fix 35+ Privacy Issues With Just One Click

 

So you finally upgraded your system to Windows 10 and became one those 70 Million users.

No doubt, Windows 10 is the Windows best version released by Microsoft, but you need to know that it does not offer much privacy by default.

Windows 10 is making many headlines these days, even it made me to write two detailed articles about Windows 10’s most controversial options, i.e. Windows Wi-Fi sense and Windows 10 stealing users' Bandwidth to deliver updates.

I noticed over 35 more privacy issues that come enabled by default in Windows 10, which has permission to send your vast amount of data back to Microsoft.

While Installation, a click through "Express Settings" allows Windows 10 operating system to gather up your contacts, text and touch input, calendar details, and a lot more, including:

• Location Data
• Biometrics and Handwriting data
• Advertisement and its Tracking Code
• Apps access to your personal information
• Windows Defender and Sample submissions
• Microsoft OneDrive
• Cortana & Web search
• Telemetry services
• Webcam and Microphone Access
• Sync Data with other Devices
• Using Microsoft account, Instead of local account
• Sending Feedback & diagnostics reports to Microsoft
• and many more...

The operating system then sends all the gathered data back to Microsoft so that the data can be used by the company for personalisation and targeted ads.

UPDATE: False-Positive Antivirus Alerts

Note: Your Antivirus product may detect this tool malicious in nature because it can modify Windows settings.

However, developer of the tool is also using an advertisement campaign within the software (mentioned in its End-User License Agreement), so it could also be detected as an Adware, or Pup (potentially unwanted program).

Technically, the program is not a malware and you can uninstall it after using once to fix Windows 10 privacy issues.
