Describes an update for the Windows 10 Version 1511 out-of-box experience. Windows 10 is now installed on more than 200 million gadgets worldwide. That's quite a feat in the tech world, since its official release was only six months ago.
In this version episode of I show you how to disable all of the spying features of Windows 10 and get your privacy back. I think Windows 10 is a great operating system once you disable all the data gathering mechanisms and return it back to a pure operating system. ▼ Be sure and watch the updated version of this video after Anniversary update ▼ ▼ Windows 10 - We're Watching T-Shirt (limited quantities!) ▼ ▼ Time Indexes ▼ - Already have Windows 10 installed, Start here! ▼ Download Spybot Anti Beacon ▼ ▼ Use the following links to support me & my channel ▼ Donate @ Buy one of my T-Shirts @ Shop Amazon CA @ Discount on GT Omega Chairs @ -or- Use code 'NERDGASM' at checkout! ▼ UPDATES ▼ 1) 'some settings are managed by your organization' is displayed because Spybot Beacon changes some group policy settings.

I've had one report of this fixing the problem. ▼ Questions & Answers ▼ Q) I like Cortana so I don't want to disable that feature. A) That is fine, but just realized that Microsoft intentionally made Cortana dependent on the cloud meaning you have to give up your information, searches, contacts, calendar entries, etc to use her. You can't pick and chose what gets sent to Microsoft and still use the feature.
It's all or nothing and I think this sends a bad message from Microsoft on what they are actually doing with that data. Q) Why do you hate Microsoft so much? A) I don't hate Microsoft, I worked there for 15 years as a Senior Software Developer. Windows is still my preferred platform that I use daily.
What I don't like is the direction Microsoft is taking with regards to advertisement and marketing being the focus over the core operating system and innovation. Q) You should just run Linux! A) I like Linux but it's not in any position to be a replacement for an operating system like Windows. There is no Adobe support on Linux and it's not ideal for mainstream content creators and software developers. But who knows what the future holds if Microsoft keeps going down this dark street.
Q) What is telemetry? A) It's Microsoft collecting data on your computer, what you search for, usage patterns, application usage, etc so they can analyze the data or use it for marketing. Full Disclosure: I worked at Microsoft for 15 years as a Software Developer and was laid off well over a year ago when Microsoft decided to get rid of the entire Windows test organization that I worked in.

New to the forum.I just upgraded my windows 7 original install on my Toshiba Laptop (3 years old) to the Windows 10 Home Preview Build (10130 was installed). Everything appears to be working EXCEPT my touchpad will not scroll. Drivers and Hardware I just installed Build 9879 over Windows 7 on a spare machine and it went as expected except for the size of the Icon fonts and size of the taskbar.
They both are much larger than they were on Win 7. I can't remember how to make them smaller. General Support I know there has been discussions of whether or not the 'old' users of Win 8/8.1 will be upgraded to Win 10 for free/fee etc. But was wondering what effect will there be on all the new 8/8.1 desktop/laptop's that are received for the holiday and.
General Support hi guys, well scrolling is not possible anymore, maybe because of an update. In IE Smooth Scroll is off, but on just give the same result.

Since the most recent build of W-10 (9879), my caps lock, num lock, and scroll lock lights do not function on either computer on which I have W-10 installed (a desktop with a USB keyboard and a laptop with an integrated keyboard). General Support.
