    Almost none of this matters if what you're trying to do is keep your data private. No matter what you turn on or off MS will take what they want. Don't think so? Turn off everything you want then put a sniffer on the line... Tons of data being sent - what you're looking at, clicking on, mail, location... they're taking it all. All these switches you're fiddling with are mostly just to make you feel good - maybe "tailor YOUR experience" a bit.

      And you have proof that all that 'data' is going to Microsoft? Keep that tin hat on tight buddy.

      ​@@WhYArEYouSoSeRiOuS Sure, if all you're after is a peppier system. If on the other hand you actually care about security and not sending everything you do to MS and likely the CIA/NSA as well, then it doesn't really matter - Windows is just not the OS you want is you're after security like that.

    He forgot these settings when accessing your Microsoft Account.
    Click Privacy
    Scroll down to "Expanded people suggestions" > choose to turn it off because Microsoft collects that data when they are suggesting people.
    Scroll down to "More privacy settings"
    - there are 4 card modules across the page (in desktop computer) titled: "Personalized ad settings" | "Apps and services" | "Promotional communications" | "Other Microsoft products".
    The first 3 from the left to review the settings or App details, go through each one and turn off, or turn off permissions, or clear any data. / I turned off all of it and removed all permissions. If some App wants permissions for something, it will ask and you can decide on that when it does.
    For some of these settings to view, they will open a new browser tab, some will open into the same tab.
    ** Note: to return to the main privacy page listings, use the menu above clicking "Privacy" because somehow the browser back button won't work properly.

      That is fine if a person does not need any specific windows based programs they already paid good money for, then yes go to Linux.
      ...but I researched that option to find Linux does not readily support enough windows based programs to do that, even with plugins and the sort.
      Especially if a person invested a lot of time into some online multi-player games.
      So Linux is a good option, but not good enough in some aspects.
      This is why others who find ways to block such Microsoft controls is a good thing.
      We need someone who builds a Windows based OS that is independent from Microsoft and completely free of privacy violations.
