Or simply follow the Blog and see how to deal with it with Windows integrated settings. GPO still does it job and the rest can already blocked via Windows Firewall/IPSec and other integrated tools.
In most cases it’s not worth to disable something when you might run into problems (e.g. if you have update/upgrade issue) and MS already changed a lot when it comes to telemetry, most so called ‘spying’ domains are never getting contacted unless you opt-in into the beta program or in case there is really a crash.
Also some tools are always outdated because of the update politics or not functional anymore, I think there are better ways and I still do believe that telemetry is not the devil. However what I not liked is that Microsoft sold the collected data to 3rd-party ones and this must stop, from what I know the EU commission already disallowed it and because of that the EULA got changed several times now since the initial Win 10 release.
I think as long as the data doesn’t contain private information and are encrypted and deleted after xyt days/weeks I would telemetry less critical than the media over and over wrongly advertise.

Remove-AppXPackage microsoft.windowscommunicationsapps_17.6002.42251.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbweAn alternative method if you wish to totally remove all metro apps, thanks to svet-am
As I posed in the other thread, here’s how to nuke ALL of the metro stuff in one go and be left with «just» Windows 10Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppXProvisionedPackage -online | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage –onlineThe first line removes them ALL (including the store) for the current user. The second one removes them from Windows’ backing store so that they are not automatically installed for any new (or other) users.
And if you wish to wipe out all the metro apps but keep «Windows Store» here another alternative command thanks to Jaymzkerten
There’s probably a way to restore them from the install disk if you absolutely needed to, otherwise you can just modify that second powershell command to:Get-AppXPackage | Where Name -NotLike "*WindowsStore*" | Remove-AppXPackage Get-AppXProvisionedPackage -online | Where DisplayName -NotLike "*WindowsStore*" | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage –onlineThat will remove everything except the Windows Store app.
Further more you can extract a list of all the «windows modem apps» using the Get-AppxPackage >C:appDetails.txt which will provide you a text based list of all the current apps installed.
Services to Disable
- Windows Error Reporting Service
- WAP Push Message Routing Service
- Downloaded Maps Manager—> new service, seems useless for me
- Geolocation Service —> new service, seems useless for me
- Internet Connection Sharing (ICS)
- Net.Tcp Port Sharing Service
- Print Spooler —> Only Disable if you not plan on using any printers with your PC as most printers require this service
- Program Compatibility Assistant Service
- Remote Registry
- Routing and Remote Access
- Security Center —> I find it to be useless
- Skype Updater
- Smart Card
- Superfetch —> I disabled this because I have my OS installed on a SSD, perhaps good to keep for normal HDDs
- Windows Event Collector
- Windows Firewall —> Never had the need for it but no harm to keep it on automatic if you wish
- Windows Biometric Service —> (This service is mainly used to store digital information from devices such as a finger printer reader however it seems to be linked with cortana search engine, so its best to keep this service startup type as manual)
- Windows Search Indexing —> This service can be disabled if you are not plan on using the «Cortana Task Bar Search» You can still search for files with Windows explorer search bar however your search results might be slower if your using a Mechanical Hard Drive rather then a SSD.
For reference these are the following services that I keep disabled right now.
Cortana Task bar Search
Ideally I would like to disable Cortana and stop the process searchui.exe from running which then it would allow me to disable Windows Search Indexing Service and Windows Biometric Service. Microsoft has simply taken the old start menu search function and separated into a new background process which is integrated to cortana which I personally find useless as you can still use the search box in «windows explorer» with out the need for this new search processes. So moving on it seems the only way to completely kill the process is to take ownership of the cortana package directory and rename the searchui.exe but I have not tried this method yet.
Edit: I indeed manage to take owner ship of the Cortana directory and rename the searchui.exe to something like searchui.exe.disable and killed the cortana process, this indeed prevents cortana from restarting the background task and pretty much disables the search box in the task bar for those who wish not to use it. You can simply hide the icon.
As other posts have mentioned is best to disable the windows update peer to peer feature also.
To Disable Windows Update Peer to Peer: Start -> Settings-> Update and Security -> Windows Update -> Choose how Updates are delivered -> Off
How to prevent automatic driver updates in Windows 10: (Thanks to marka211 once again)
Added Picture for reference
Navigate to Control Panel>System and click Advanced System Settings
Open the “Hardware” tab and click the Device Installation Settings button
Change the setting to “No, let me choose what to do” and then enable the option to “Never install driver software from Windows Update
Click the Save Changes button at the bottom.
Windows Defender
Windows Defender can also be manualy turned off in Control panel however the Windows Defender service will continue to run in the background and the option to disable it with in the services is grayed out, so I found a simple exe tool which easily dose this for you. «NoDefender.exe» Disable Windows Defender manualy first and Run the Tool to disable the service all together.
Link to Download
Alternative method to disable the Windows Defender Service rather then using the exe tool. Thanks to Jaymzkerten
Alternatively if you want to disable Windows Defender and you don’t trust the internet, you can launch regedit and browse to HKLMSYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesWinDefend, find the ‘Start’ property and set the value to 4 (disabled), reboot your computer and the Windows Defender Service will now be set to disabled.
Microsoft OneDrive
found a great post about completely removing OneDrive and cleaning the left overs on «Hardforums» and I thought I might as well add it to the list. Thanks to «marka211»
Copy into notepad and save as OneDrive Uninstaller.cmd, then run it and it should remove Onedrive from Windows 10

pauseI also like to mention some of the «Windows Features» that i normaly remove/keep:
- .NET Framework 3.5 (includes .NET 2.0 and 3.0) —> Recommended to have installed as most older applications need these library
- .NET Framework 4.5 Advanced Services —> Recommended to have installed as most older applications need these library
- Internet Explorer 11 —> I remove this as I never plan on using Internet explorer (Not to be confused with the new Microsoft Edge Metro web browser)
- Internet Information Services —> Disabled by default
- Internet Information Services Hostable Web Core —> Disabled by default
- Legacy Components (DirectPlay) —> I recommend installing this for support with games that require older versions of Direct X
- Media Features (Windows Media Player) —> Optional, I use Media player so i keep it enabled for my self.
- Microsoft Message Queue (MSMQ) —> Disabled by default.
- Print and Document Services —> several services that make it possible to use and manage printing, faxing and scanning devices. disable if you dont use these features.
- Remote Differential Compression API Support —> Leave it as enabled as default.
- Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) —> Disabled by default.
- Simple TCP/IP services (i.e. echo, daytime, etc) —> Disabled by default.
- SMB 1.0/CIFS File Sharing Support —> I keep this enabled if you plan on doing cross networking and file sharing, (Example Android phone and your PC)
- Telnet Server —> Disabled by default.
- TFTP Client —> Disabled by default.
- Windows Identity Foundation 3.5 —> Disabled by default.
- Windows Powershell 2.0 —> You can either keep this enabled or remove it (Shouldn’t make much difference for most people that don’t make use of powershell.
- Windows Process Activation Service —> Disabled by default.
- Windows TIFF IFilter —> Disabled by default.
- Work Folders Client —> Allows users to sync a folder and its content, from the corporate network to their personal devices. Useless for me so I keep it disabled.
- XPS Services —> Unless you use this feature you can disable it.
- XPS Viewer —>Unless you use this feature you can disable it.
Disabling the Diagnostic and Usage Data and Telemetry (Thanks to Seroman).
Steps taken from here : http://winaero.com/blog/how-to-disable-telemetry-and-data-collection-in-windows-10/On Win 10 Pro
1.Open Registry Editor.
2.Go to the following Registry key:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREPoliciesMicrosoftWindowsDataCollection
3. There you need to create a new a 32-bit DWORD value named AllowTelemetry and set it to 0
4. Go to Services and Applications -> Services in the left pane. In the services list, disable the following services:Diagnostics Tracking Service
dmwappushsvc5. Double click the mentioned services and pick «Disabled» for the startup type
6. You need to restart Windows 10 for changes to take effect.
A fantastic all in one script which will make a lot of changes that are individually mentioned here, Thanks to D4rkn3ss for this great find.

There is no proper way to reinstall default apps. You’ll have to create a new user profile to undo this.
It seems like if you do a fresh installation of windows 10 rather then upgrade, Windows Photo Viewer can’t be used as default applications to view pictures and you are forced to use the Metro app «Photos». Well this safe and tested registry tweak adds the default file formats to Windows Photo Viewer so it can once again be used as default.
Copy and paste into a notepad and save it as whatevernameyoulike.reg

Just found out that Stardock the company that released «Start8» have created a version for Windows 10 «Start10» which I believe is worth checking out for any one that likes more options.

This is the main thing that worries me about Windows 10, is what is MS collecting, in order to want to give it away for free.

Seriously, if you’re going this far, just stick with Windows 7/8/8.1, geez.![:)]( "Smile :)")
This keeps getting repeated over and over and honestly it is a dumb retort. Maybe he/she/we want the under the hood changes, ui changes, DX12 availablity, or any of the many other changes — BUT don’t want all this worthless to us bloat they are including.
How about that?

I would like to know how to remove the Windows 8.1 backup that was created when Windows 10 was installed…
Disk Cleanup will take care of that. Search for «cleanup» and it’s the first hit.

What under the hood changes occurred that is significantly different / better than Windows 7? DX12 is a non issue as nothing uses it right now. I’m generally curious as I hadn’t seen anything worthwild myself.

That everyone seems to be tripping over their dick to undo?
That probably won’t have any practical application for a year or more?

Guys these are just changes I personally prefer to make to windows 10 as I believe most of these are useless for me, however should you wish to keep everything as default that’s obviously your choice but I do hope others can contribute to my list.
Thanks guys.
hmmm, none of those commands are working for me in P.S.
Did you make sure to run Powershell as admin? Try and copy and paste each line of command and execute them one at a time, also make sure that their is no extra space at the end when you copy and paste into powershell however I don’t think it would matter.
I have tested all these changes on my current Windows 10 Upgrade and they all seem to work fine.

If you use the software on-screen keyboard, they track it all and record it for «auto correction improvements» If you use Cortana, everything you type there is sent to Microsoft. I’m sure there is more.

I think by now it should be very obvious to most if not every one the reason windows 10 is provided for free across the board. To simply put, its my belief this operating system goal is to gather as much «cloud» data from every one as it can by default for the sake of information control and privacy invasion. Think about it, most people will not bother to tinker with the default settings and disable all the Microsoft Cloud & and Sync features let alone go deeper into disabling crappy services or removing the metro bloatware and so on.
Sadly because of Direct X 12 it will push the majority including my self to use windows 10 for for the future of gaming however this dose not mean I won’t do my best to try and remove/disable everything which I believe to be pointless. Windows 10 is really no different then any of the previous versions of windows with a bunch of new bloat services and a GUI face lift. Microsoft is even pulling dirty tricks such as this to restrict The Xbox One wireless controller adapter for Windows 10 only.

Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers | Remove-AppxPackage
Get-AppXProvisionedPackage -online | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage –onlineThe first line removes them ALL (including the store) for the current user. The second one removes them from Windows’ backing store so that they are not automatically installed for any new (or other) users.
btw, those are POWERSHELL commands, not CMD.EXE commands.

As I posed in the other thread, here’s how to nuke ALL of the metro stuff in one go and be left with «just» Windows 10Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers | Remove-AppxPackage Get-AppXProvisionedPackage -online | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage onlineThe first line removes them ALL (including the store) for the current user. The second one removes them from Windows’ backing store so that they are not automatically installed for any new (or other) users.
btw, those are POWERSHELL commands, not CMD.EXE commands.
Hey and thanks for this I will add this to the first post also. The reason I didn’t remove all of them was because a few of them could be interesting to keep such as the calculator metro app and so on however I will try out this command today as I do believe is better to get rid of them all,

This is hardly some long stretch idea. You «quote» it in a way that makes it seem disingenuous. If they want to improve auto-correct, collecting random data on what people are typing is basically a good way to do that. Searching with Cortana, well, it may not be painfully obvious to Joe Consumer, but to most of us it should be sort of logical to reason that Cortana is a middlewoman in data retrieval, and anything you look for through her is going to get fed into MS’s server farms before it gets to whatever will generate the output.
While I have not passed the BAR or gotten a doctorate in Law, I can say if one goes over the EULA they will probably find something about any data collection being anonymized and not able to track back to an individual user by name. They have little reason to geolocate anything anyone is typing, unless they want to track usage of the word «y’all».

Even before you can start to use «Cortana» she asks that you agree to a list of things Cortana needs to access, and let me tell you its a pretty long and personal list of «things»

Windows DefenderWindows Defender can also be manualy turned off in Control panel however the Windows Defender service will continue to run in the background and the option to disable it with in the services is grayed out, so I found a simple exe tool which easily dose this for you. «NoDefender.exe» Disable Windows Defender manualy first and Run the Tool to disable the service all together.
Link to Download
Sounds like the best idea ever, download a tool from internet that promises to disable the defender. What else does it do?![:D]( "Big Grin :D")
Not saying I don’t like your list of things.
Alternatively if you want to disable Windows Defender and you don’t trust the internet, you can launch regedit and browse to HKLMSYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesWinDefend, find the ‘Start’ property and set the value to 4 (disabled), reboot your computer and the Windows Defender Service will now be set to disabled.

If you kill off the modern apps — is there any way to ever get them back?
It depends on which method you choose. If you do the steps in the OP, then yes. Just re-install from the store for most of them. If you use my method, then no, because it kills the store too.

Get-AppXPackage | Where Name -NotLike "*WindowsStore*" | Remove-AppXPackage
Get-AppXProvisionedPackage -online | Where DisplayName -NotLike "*WindowsStore*" | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage onlineThat will remove everything except the Windows Store app.

There’s probably a way to restore them from the install disk if you absolutely needed to, otherwise you can just modify that second powershell command to:Get-AppXPackage | Where Name -NotLike "*WindowsStore*" | Remove-AppXPackage Get-AppXProvisionedPackage -online | Where DisplayName -NotLike "*WindowsStore*" | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage onlineThat will remove everything except the Windows Store app.
Yes I would also recommend to keep the Windows Store app if you plan on removing everything

Even before you can start to use «Cortana» she asks that you agree to a list of things Cortana needs to access, and let me tell you its a pretty long and personal list of «things»
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/privacystatement/default.aspx
Location services.
Speech and Input Personalization.
Text messages and email
Apps and services.
Browsing history. If you choose to send your full browsing history to Microsoft in Microsoft Edge
Search history.
Personal indeed! o.o; She needs to know the things necessary for her to do the things she was designed to do. Crazy!

I do understand that she needs access to the following personal info in order for her to function properly however this information is also cached and stored on Microsoft servers and that’s what I’m not a fan of. So I rather have cortana disabled all together including the background process and just use the local explorer search function like I always have so to each his own.

I do not want to provide a link to the actual guide (on a forum) because I do not want to violate HardForum rules, which are strict regarding certain aspects.
