Keep getting notice to review privacy settings in preparation for Windows 10 update. Have postponed so far.
Is this related to the Creators Update?
TOPICS: Computers/Internet
KEYWORDS: update; windows; windowspinglist

At least you got warning. My computer is in shop after that update. Locked everything up like I had no permission to go anywhere. Ugh!

LOL! 💻 I kept putting mine off and I guess we reached the end point to where it was "yes" or go no further. Then it went ahead and did the updates.

I got the notice this morn so I did it. I had one thing turned on allowing MSFT to collect data for analytics so I turned that off too.

It’s not a big deal, just asks you to acknowledge or change a few previous privacy settings.

They completely changed privacy settings with Creators Update or maybe stopped you from using privacy settings(LOL) so they can collect your info and “SELL IT”. I removed my Win 10 hard drive and bought a 2 tb hard drive and now I use Linux Mint 18.2 xfce ,the win 10 hard drive is over there in the corner collecting dust

I noticed that the default settings of every privacy option on a new computer I set up recently was the opposite of what I wanted. Every single one.

My future machines will be running Linux as the primary OS, and Windows will be relegated to running in a VM when needed.
It's MY computer! tm

My wife's laptop is on wireless, so I set every network it sees as metered. MS won't update a metered connection.....
I'm still on XP, =;-)
