Windows 10 update KB3081424 live for download
Microsoft this week rolled out Sway, its new presentation and design solution, to select Office 365 subscribers worldwide, as well as to Windows 10 tablet and PC users.
In related news, Microsoft is expected to unveil its Lumia 950 and Lumia 950 XL devices by the end of this year. Maybe a mission critical program doesn’t work properly, maybe you hate the new Start menu, or maybe Cortana is giving you the creeps.
There is a lot of personal information that Windows 10 collects from its users, such as credit card numbers, Global Positioning System location and even audio and video messages.
Microsoft is yet to announce when the roll out for smartphones will begin, but the Lumia devices will be at the forefront to receive it.
The statement by Microsoft does not clarify how much data is sent by users to see how much is being used up by WUDO.
Do you believe Microsoft’s expressing settings are nefarious or all in good nature? To install KB 3081424, you must already have KB 3074683 on your machine.
Here’s a look at some of the most default privacy settings you sign up for when you download Windows 10.
But I’m wondering if Microsoft is looking to make Windows 10 as attractive as they can to home users in the hope of pressuring the enterprise, where Microsoft makes the majority of its income, into upgrading. Yes, you read that right – Windows is now set for a complete overhaul, going app-centric branching every software and feature into application, which will get time-on-time updates.
According to Microsoft, WUDO will not allow downloading or sending personal content, and that it will only be sending portions of the update cache. Therefore, this package contains all previously-released fixes.
Then you will want to scroll down to “Other Devices” and disable syncing with other wireless devices.
As users will have to know which features to disable if they don’t want to share any data with Microsoft, Fowler singled out Cortana as the number one data collector.
