| Cortana is sent to Microsoft, along with any media files it
| finds. When webcam is enabled, 35MB of data goes to Microsoft.
| Even with Cortana disabled/uninstalled, Windows 10 sends all
| microphone audio to Microsoft, when the computer is idle.

dont worry

just run the bash scripts to fix it

>>53784492
No. Group policy mapping is still a mess.

>Upgraded
Everything just werks!
>Refresh build comes along. Upgrade again.
>Voice modem functionality is dropped (I use a modem for my answerphone software) and nothing is in the pipeline to address this decision.

Thanks MS!

>>53784492
I bought a tablet with it, used it for 5 minutes and haven't used it since, Windows 10 is more of a failed abortion than Windows ME. Windows 8 was a step in the right direction compared to this piece of trash

Holy crap this is laughable.

MS are complete morons.

Nah i'm still good with windows 7
>>
i'll never upgrade because of the forced updates in windows 10. i like to have at least some control over what software is installed on my hardware.

What the fuck are you even using a voice modem for in 2016?
>>
>>53785670
dial up
>>
>>53785690
The drivers are still working for dial up though according to this guy, it's only the voice function that's not working if I'm understanding correctly

But I'm surprised windows 10 has any support for modems at all, or that anybody is using them for anything
>>
>>53785732
I'm still mad they dropped floppy support
>>
>>53785515
lol, looking at MS reply i'm sure he'll get better answer just by asking /g/.
>>
>>53785768
I doubt most of the people posting here have ever used a modem, I'm not sure /g/ would be any help

Especially since the guy in the microsoft post wants a pretty niche modem function back
>>
>>53785792
>I'm not sure /g/ would be any help
that's the point, senpai
>>
I upgraded whilst it was still just insider previews.
No regrets.

How can one man be so based?
>>
>>53784492
Yes.

I wanted to try out all the new stuff I read about. Most of the neat things are actually not released yet.

I have no issues so far, seems pretty solid.
>>
>>53785732
New business laptops still ship with modems
>>53785759
Worked fine on RTM, don't think they dropped it in the meantime
>>
>>53785894
And the modem functions all still work, the voice modem shit is what isn't working

Nobody is using their business laptop as an answering machine
>>
>>53785894
Huh, I read somehwere they dropped it, saw it posted here a few times too
>>
>>53785912
I heard they only removed some drivers for USB floppies, the internal ones are still suipported. MS designers drew new icons for the 3.5" and even for 5.25" drives
>>
oh fuck. i'll just stick with 7 for now and wait 2-3 years until this shit becomes more stable + botnet reversed by crackers.
>>
>>53785670
>>53785690
Answerphone. Fax. Some businesses still use dial up for certain applications. Plus not everyone in the world has DSL or fiber.
