After initial public outcry over lack of privacy features in Windows 10, the Redmond software maker has been trying to offer better security and privacy controls in its desktop operating system. With the Windows 10 Creators Update that was released earlier this year, the company introduced new privacy controls and made some visible during the setup process. As we have seen in a poll shared here on Wccftech, not many of you noticed these toggles and since they were turned off by default, many Windows 10 users were unwittingly giving Microsoft more data than they actually liked to.
The company’s next version of Windows 10 is coming next month. Windows 10 Fall Creators Update, among other features and improvements, is also bringing more privacy controls. Again, many users may not opt to use these controls, it is a positive sign that the Windows maker is trying to be more forthcoming about its data collection practices and giving users more controls, as well.
