Hey Y’all,

If you have PRO you can use Group Policy to prevent Windows from running you through those questions (mostly tracking stuff) after a windows update as follows:

USER Configuration
  Administrative Templates
     Windows Componets
        OOBE
           Don't Launch privacy settings experience...

Just enable it.

May the Forces of good computing be with you!

RG, are you sure?

I’ve been using Shawn Brink’s following .REG file to stop the nonsense:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

“ScoobeSystemSettingEnabled”=dword:00000000

I haven’t had to use it in a while so maybe it’s changed?
