Yes please. More info on which privacy settings to turn off and which settings to leave on 😊
-
I have customized the Microsoft privacy settings for years and think you should make a video about it because everyone should know their options. I recommend checking them every now and then because sometimes updates change some settings back to default.
-
Yes definitely, make a video on the group policy editor for privacy.

One of the first things I did with my new windows laptop, I uninstalled all the bloat wear like one drive, 365, Skype, teams, just anything I had no intention of ever using. Then I downloaded a new internet browser, installed it and found out how to completely remove edge. I disabled Cortana, I won’t use it. Now with Microsoft forces copilot onto everyone, I found out how to completely remove that as well. I would get rid of the Microsoft store but it’s the only way to actually get programs on your computer now days. I wish companies like Microsoft would stop installing things we don’t ask for. I wish the US would follow the EU and force Microsoft to allow us to uninstall the things we don’t want. No one wants Edge, not many people use teams or Skype, and not very many want to use AI like Cortana or copilot. Just allow us to customize our windows experience.

Yes, please! A video with more privacy settings would be great!!!

I set up two local accounts on a new Windows computer: an administrator account and a standard user account. Most of the time I use the standard account, so I don't mess something up inadvertently. I only log in to the administrator account when I want to install software or similar.
-
Yes we do want to see which settings we should have in Windows!! Thank you for offering!!!!
-
Definitely make a video about more privacy please Liron.
-
absolutely want more privacy, and a registry video would be cool, too
-
Very useful and pertinent, thank you. Yes, please, to the video, to turn off all privacy settings on microsoft
-
I really appreciate how balanced and objective this was. Most YouTube videos on the subject seem to have an agenda, and end up ignoring the requirements of the user.
-
Yes please do a video on more information regarding privacy settings. Additionally, a video on group policies which those of us who have Windows 11 Pro could use would be great.
-
I would like to see what policies you have set on your daily computer. Thank you for your work done on your videos.
-
Thank you! and I will love more videos about Wiindows especially Stop Code

Hi to correct something you said about MS Account, timestamp 6:08... You can sign in to windows even when you are offline. What you can't do though is changing things like user names when you are offline.
-
One thing you need to watch out for is whenever you download a windows update, it can automatically change to a Microsoft account from a local account. I've noticed this and changed it back to a local account. Thank you Liron sir as you made this so easy.
-

-
Yea! Just what I was looking for! And yes I would love the privacy setting video
-
Best channel on YouTube hands down. Liron is an absolute legend!
-
Very interesting video! I would definitely like to see a video on which privacy settings should be turned on in Windows.
