A Windows pop up, right above the system tray. Holy fuck. I would have screen shot it but I was in disbelief.

    I’ve been using Shut Up 10 by O&O Software for ages now. Turns off all recommended telemetry and you can go a step further and disable a ton of stuff, basically anything irksome that M$ pulls.

    It’s free as well. I haven’t noted any negative issues with it. Also works on Win 11

      I love ShutUp10. Like you, I have used it for years now with zero problems. It places many different settings and options into one single app. The same settings that Microsoft likes to hide from us by scattering arbitrarily it all over Settings, Control Panel, the registry, etc.

        Wish I knew, never used it! I only ever used Shut Up 10, as prior to 10, the telemetry wasn’t as prominent, or at least seemingly so.
