Protection of personal data in Windows 10 is still burning those who are interested, and so far Microsoft has still not mentioned the issue.
So it's no surprise that they started to appear third-party applications which can block data extraction from Windows 10 and send them to the company.
Below we will report a new easy way to prevent your data from leaking. It is a complete list of domains that the company uses to retrieve the data.
These domains can be easily excluded from the Windows 10 host file so your information will not be sent to Microsoft. The way I outlined below does not use third party applications.
The full list of domains, which you can below they leaked στο διαδίκτυο, και χρησιμοποιούνται από την Microsoft για δεχτεί δεδομένα που συλλέγονται από το Cortana, such as contacts, calendar events, speech and text, typing history.
There are many ways to edit the Hosts file and add any by clicking here in the block list.
You will need Notepad or Notepad or the free Notepad ++ application. Notepad or Notepad should open it with administrator rights.
In the search, type "Notebook", or Notepad, right-click on the result and click "Run as administrator".
Click Open and follow the following path:
c: \ windows \ system32 \ drivers \ etc \ hosts
Open the hosts file and paste the entire list found at the end of the post. in the box below, but make sure you add the string 127.0.0.1 before each line. So, basically, every link it should look like the following:
127.0.0.1 domain.com
Domain.com should be replaced with each of the domains listed.
Before you start editing the host file, make a backup of the hosts file so you can restore it if something goes wrong.
