Part of Windows Tweaks Toolkit by @ka.refined-eng
Shuts down every telemetry channel Windows uses to phone home. Services are stopped and disabled, policy keys are locked so Windows Update can't re-enable them, and feedback prompts are silenced.
| # | Tweak | What It Kills |
|---|---|---|
| 01 | DiagTrack service OFF | Primary telemetry daemon — runs 24/7 collecting usage data |
| 02 | Telemetry policy = 0 | Locks to "Security only" level via Group Policy key |
| 03 | WAP Push service OFF | Device management data routing |
| 04 | CEIP disabled | Customer Experience Improvement Program data collection |
| 05 | Error Reporting OFF | Crash dumps no longer sent to Microsoft |
| 06 | App telemetry OFF | Application inventory and compatibility telemetry |
| 07 | Feedback = NEVER | No more "How was your experience?" prompts |
| 08 | Diagnostic viewer OFF | Background diagnostic data aggregation |
| 09 | App launch tracking OFF | Windows stops logging which apps you open |
| 10 | Steps Recorder OFF | No background screen recording for diagnostics |
