Don't say I never gave you anything. :D

If you know of or find any other fixes feel free to post them here.

I notice there's no option to turn off one of the most contentious changes, sending data about your application usage to Microsoft.

If you find it, post it.

That is the main reason I stick to fedora and windows 8.1 on my PC.
I was testing Windows 10 for a while (last 3 builds), and it was great. But the privacy issues was to much.

Still ain't updrading ...

I got better fix - don't use windows 10.

Millions are going to use it. If enough of them disable all the included junk and spyware maybe MS will garner a clue and issue an all-in-one update fix.

Some useful info in the comments lower down too.

you must really hate your smart phone then

My 4 fixes would be something along the lines of:

- Burn an ISO of a version of Linux of my choice
- Zero-fill my hard drive with something like Active KillDisk
- Flash my motherboard bios with a bios from the manufacturer, as Windows 10 tampers with it
- Install Linux from the DVD I just burned

:2 cents:

disable internet connections and you are safe.

THAT.....

For the record I do not have Windows 10 yet. I've always been more of a "wait until service pack 1" kind of guy when new incursions come out, and I think I'll be that guy in this instance too. I'm seeing a lot of favorable reviews of Win 10 but also a lot of comments about mostly minor problems but problems nonetheless.

There are tons of reviews out there of course, many that seem to just be blowing MS, but here is about as fair, detailed, and balanced a review as you're likely to see: Windows 10 review | The Verge
