On the subject of turning off the calls:
https://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?72686-Spybot-Anti-Beacon-for-Windows-10 I don’t know if it actually catches them all, because I wouldn’t know what they all are, but it catches quite a few, and keeps them off. And, on the subject of just getting rid of the “Update to Windows 10” prompts: GWX (Get Windows 10) Control Panel http://ultimateoutsider.com/downloads/ Rick Wannall Houston From: BVARC [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Jon Noxon via BVARC Sent: Wednesday, July 27, 2016 5:22 PM To: BRAZOS VALLEY AMATEUR RADIO CLUB Cc: Jon Noxon Subject: Re: [BVARC] Win10 upgrade problem OK guys, see this: https://youtu.be/TXTWCqTRIag (this Cat has a mere 750000 followers) The real problem is Microsoft wants to mine everything you do so they can sell focused advertising. Everything since Windows 7 has been mostly cosmetic changes to the screen, except with Windows 10 they killed off Media Center (which I actually use). If you can figure out all the tweaks to turn off all the calls back home and get Google back instead of Bing, use it. I'm mostly Mac OS and only run Win 7 to run some ham programs (HRD). Jon KF5TFJ
