| 1423287 | 2016-07-19 04:03:00 | Just finding my way around Win10 and I read on the Net all the things you should switch off. I can't believe they can ALL be that bad. What are your thoughts on what should be attended to promptly.? |

| 1423288 | 2016-07-19 04:32:00 | Depends how easily you get upset by these things. After a while, I just 'got over it' and left most as they were! Being an Insider, if I worried about it, I would be jumping through hoops every couple of days ATM. Just don't think anything bad is going to descend on me but you may think differently. Sounds like you are having a good experience with win 10, though, so now you only have to weather another download after 2 Aug! Cheers. |

| 1423290 | 2016-07-19 04:58:00 | Most of the things I turn off are during installing via the customize option. Its not everything, but no real point in having any info being sent back if you personally never use it, example - Cortana wants to be a nosey but it doesn't work fully in NZ anyway unless you change the region to a country that does. Only other things I turn off, and this increases performance, is the notifications. These can be a real power Hog and bring almost any W10 to a crawl, and often the cause of most people complaining about being slow or slow to start. Sometimes if your computer is running slow, open Task manager and look at the Disk, often its at 90 -100%. To turn them off from Search type in Notifications select one of the two options it gives, then under Notifications turn them all off, then watch the usage drop. If it doesn't then reboot and it will. |

| 1423295 | 2016-07-19 09:31:00 | I use O&O ShutUp 10 to apply certain changes to Windows 10..... Link here (www.oo-software.com) Takes a lot of the guess work out and you can easily undo changes you made by re-running the exe. Cheers, |
