Telemetry seems to have become a necessary evil in the development of Windows, as Microsoft collects data to be able to improve its products.
But when telemetry software is secretly included in the updates των Windows και στη συνέχεια ενεργοποιείται στο functional system without users knowing, there is a problem.
This happened in July 2019, when Microsoft included code telemetry in an update that targeted Windows 7, all without making it clear in the released KB.
Now Microsoft is doing it again, according with Woody Leonhard, as he discovered telemetry services in the latest updates of Windows 7 and 8.1 and released on September 10 [KB4516033 (Win7) and KB4516064 (Win8.1)].
According to Woody, one way to handle the telemetry contained in the latest monthly updates for Windows 7 and 8.1 is to get rid of the following scheduled tasks:
\ Microsoft \ Windows \ Application Experience \ ProgramDataUpdater
\ Microsoft \ Windows \ Application Experience \ Microsoft Compatibility Appraiser
\ Microsoft \ Windows \ Application Experience \ AitAgent
Of course Microsoft hasn't said anything even after it was made public themeτος. Το μόνο που γνωρίζουμε είναι από τις information που δημοσιεύει η εταιρεία σε μια ξεχωριστή ενημερωμένη έκδοση με την ονομασία KB2952664 που αναφέρει παρόμοιες possibilities telemetry:
This update performs diagnostic tests on Windows systems participating in the Windows Customer Experience Improvement Program. Diagnostics assess the compatibility status of the Windows ecosystem and help Microsoft ensure that applications and devices are compatible with all Windows updates. There is no GWX or upgrade feature in this update.
Is something similar happening in the new updates? It's hard to say since Microsoft has not mentioned anything. But telemetry is included in the latest Windows updates, and Microsoft will have to explain exactly what is happening.
