• Protect your privacy
• Control location services
• Control Windows Updates
• Do not pass on your user data and diagnostics

Windows 11 and Windows 10 wants to give users the easiest possible daily experience and in doing so very rarely forces you to actually read and confirm a security notice. Unfortunately, this simplified approach from Microsoft means much more data is passed onto them than many users would like.

Microsoft uses most data to display personalized information to you that is aimed at making your computer life easier. As an example, Windows can remind you to set off to the airport 30 minutes earlier due to traffic en route. In order to deliver this information to you, however, Windows has to access your calendar entries, mails (i.e. the airline confirmation email), location and it has to have access to the internet to get traffic news.

Some services protocol your entire keyboard entries, share your WLAN access data with your Facebook contacts. Also they can connect your PC without asking permission to a public network. While this means that you and your contacts do not have to grapple with complicated WLAN passwords. It also poses a significant security risk.
