Best ways to suppress the spy shit built in to Windows 10?

Hard mode: No, I will not install Linux. I will not install Gentoo. I will not install any other OS. I will not destroy the computer.

You can't. It's built in to the core of the OS.

Literally dozens of free tools across the internet, but I'll spare you the google.

https://github.com/10se1ucgo/DisableWinTracking

also has the option to remove all metro/store apps, which I used to do with powershell

>>54362290
OK since you are a massive faggot I'll let you in on a little secret.
If you buy this thing called a fire ax you can hit your router with the part of it called a "blade."
Once you hit your router piss on it and preferably try to hit a sparking wire or wall socket while your at it.

DirectX12, high DPI support for me

My laptop is a 14" 4K and many Windows 7 programs are completely unreadable, the zoom/dpi controls in 8 and 10 are far more capable.

Also, multiple desktops without using a third-party plugin that only sort-of works.

You can't OP. Also ignore tech illiterates who suggest you that "this magic tool" can debotnet Windows. 50% malware, 50% they dont provide anything better than editing registry settings manually - but Windows will reset these settings anway. There are hundrets of articles which describe why those tools are completly inefficient. To turn off the botnet, you need to turn off you internet connection.

If you don't want to ditch Windows and join GNU/Linux, you need to deal with the botnet. There's no escape.

most of these tools work by removing services/libraries and blocking tracking with the hosts file

You're full of shit. The hardcoded IPs that bypass the hosts file are only related to Windows Update, and if you disable the DNS Server Service, they have no effect anyway.

Seriously, just accept the botnet already if you're sucking MS' cock that willingly anyway. You don't have anything to hide, do you?

You don't. By installing Windows 10 you consent to giving Microsoft full access to everything on your computer at any time. It's not even your computer anymore, it's now a property of Microsoft.

That being said what updates should i turn off to avoid that?. Or would it be better if i just turn off updates and install them manually?.

find an old windows 7 iso that has sp1 and install it, disable updates.

download a bunch of security crap for your browser like noscript. Use MSE, enable flash only selectively. always test dodgy stuff in virtual machines. firewall can be updated seperately, use comodo in 10 years or something..

done.

the only reason to upgrade to 10 is if software or games you cant live without become available on it. otherwise dont move.

Acctually its good practice to set all auto updating crap to off. you only need to update when you actually need too otherwise don't.
>>
>>54362681
You literally can covert 2016 Feb version to ltsb.. hope you enjoy those thought.
>>
>>54369136

to add to this, if at all possible get into the habit of using portable software. so you can always copy and paste all programs and applications you use. back up your stuff to harddriuves etc

youll need to install software only for things that require registry settings, so youll want to install for software such as your picture viewer, music player so that mp3 files are associated with that program etc.

enjoy a hassle free windows 7, you can also get the best of all worlds by just installing crap u need to use in virtual machines. gaming is the only issue i can see in the future, but virtualization tech will probs get way better.

It's impossible. I've seen people try a ton of different shit to get it disabled, but it's built within the kernel probably and cannot be disabled. Besides, why the fuck would you want to use windows. To play games? All games are being ported over to linux now. To use software? Linux likely has an equivalent to any software you may need, or you can just run a QEMU vm and use it in there.

This is easily blocked at the gateway, both via DNSBL and ACLs. There are lots of docs on the web that layout the call home methods. This is easy.

I have a Ubuntu laptop, A Windows workstation and even a new Mac mini. Personally I like the ease of use and user friendly interface of most Windows OS's most. They are superior to Mas OS and far, far superior to Ubuntu.

Get over it already WINDOWS OS IS THE MOST PREFERRED OS IN THE WORLD!!
