Disabling windows 10 spyware

[LOST TALE]

Hi I just reseted windows 10 to make it able to boot with the new motherboard cpu and ram which it wasn't able to.

 

Anyway I remember a long time ago there was an utility to disable whatever windows background bs that we don't need and that was eft behidn after disabling all the options in the installation, which I didn't get this time or I was afk and it auto proceeded because of it.

 

Anyway what was that utility and what's the best one now? Certainly I would make some sacrifice to take an open source reputably safe one.

The utilities does no magic tricks. It just set options you can set yourself in the Settings panel and some of them disables Windows services. To really "disable" Windows 10 "spyware", don't use Microsoft services. That means, just don't use Cortana, don't use Edge, don't use OneDrive, don't use apps that uses Bing advertisement platform. The same deal as avoiding Google "spyware".. don't use anything that touches Google. The rest in Windows is pretty much just telemetry data. Oh, and Windows Defender panel, which you can disable things there
