I agree with the general sentiment but it literally says it will update outside of active hours. So as non-disruptive as possible.
And the privacy toggles are set when you install the OS. You can untick all of them the last time I checked.
Sorry for being such a pedant
Yeah, but it lies.
But a future Windows update will reset them without informing the user.
Microsoft respects user choice about as well as Republicans respect voting rights.
No it doesn't, at least not if the update isn't already a month overdue
I've done 3 years worth of updates in one day cause I needed too. Pretty much everything was reset including registry edits, but the privacy toggles were one of the few things that stayed persistent. Maybe it's a EU special feature (wouldn't be the first), but at least here they won't change back silently.
