Advice Request O&O ShutUp10: One setting keeps getting reset automatically?

[Venustus]

did you guys try that method in post #25 on that bleeping link? Any problem at all?

No.It's working for now..

People using AdGuard Windows can simply turn off telemetry in the Stealth-mode settings. I just wanted to tell, as I know that quite a lot of people are using AdGuard in this community.

I enabled the Stealth Mode in AdGuard for Windows and then only enabled those two settings.
So, how do you know that it really disabled Windows Telemetry?

Programs like this scare me. IMO Windows runs best when you leave it alone.

A few days ago it was lashing it down with rain & I dropped my house keys which then somehow fell in a rose plant pot, it took my a while to find then & got my hand scratched in the process, I had to change all my clothes as I was wet through - It occurred to me life would be easier without locks - My doors and car, garage would be much simpler without the necessity of security, same with PC's etc?

Yeah, I could be wrong of course but some how I doubt Microsoft will "Fix" it. ( Then again they might surprise us. )

[amirr]

Why is that so?

 

[Divine_Barakah]

Why is that so?

It has always been a cat and mouse game and Microsoft will do whatevrer it takes to collect users’s data. After each update, Microsoft makes it harder for apps such O&O’s to disable telemetry.

Quite true... most problems I see online come from tampering with Windows... often a policy, setting or service the person doe not understand and can't see the long term side effects of changing it.

Despite the changelog saying this issue is fixed it is in fact not.

Thank you for the link, but sorry no that method looks a bit extreme to me personally. To much that I could do wrong, so I will stick with my computer the way it is, makes me feel a lot more comfortable then the method in the video.

Disable telemetry option stays green after update but service is still reenabled. I guess that they just gave up on it and from now on ShutUp10 leaves that service running.
