Is the reason we're disabling tasks instead of deleting them because they just come back when deleted?
Good question. So far i only assembled the crumbles. Now it needs to check, sort and prove reliabilities. Guinea pigs with VM Experience are highly welcome .
Howdy Dawg! Congrats on the new thread But again... I simply don't get it. MS have full control of the OS... any stupid defender update can include some new hosts, new dataminers... heck, maybe they can do multiple updates in a few hours... I fail to see how fixing all those reg entries would be a good fix for this crap :/ It's only my opinion, and I *really really really* wish to be wrong. Have a good day
Why disable Power task? Code: schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Windows\Power Efficiency Diagnostics\AnalyzeSystem" /Disable My list has a few more task disabled. Code: schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Windows\AppID\SmartScreenSpecific" /Disableschtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Windows\Application Experience\Microsoft Compatibility Appraiser" /Disable schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Windows\Customer Experience Improvement Program\Consolidator" /Disable schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Windows\Customer Experience Improvement Program\KernelCeipTask" /Disable schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Windows\Customer Experience Improvement Program\UsbCeip" /Disable schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Windows\Customer Experience Improvement Program\Uploader" /Disable schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Windows\DiskDiagnostic\Microsoft-Windows-DiskDiagnosticDataCollector" /Disable schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Windows\NetTrace\GatherNetworkInfo" /Disable schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\QueueReporting" /Disable schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Windows\Shell\FamilySafetyMonitor" /Disable schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Windows\Shell\FamilySafetyRefresh" /Disable schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Windows\Shell\FamilySafetyUpload" /Disable schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Windows\Application Experience\AitAgent" /Disable schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Windows\Application Experience\ProgramDataUpdater" /Disable schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Windows\Autochk\Proxy" /Disable schtasks /change /TN "Microsoft\Windows\Customer Experience Improvement Program\Consolidator" /Disable schtasks /change /TN "Microsoft\Office\OfficeTelemetry\AgentFallBack2016" /Disable schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Office\OfficeTelemetry\OfficeTelemetryAgentLogOn2016" /Disable schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Office\OfficeTelemetryAgentLogOn" /Disable schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Office\OfficeTelemetryAgentFallBack" /Disable schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Office\Office 15 Subscription Heartbeat" /Disable
We'll see it soon i would guess. After some more tests we will know what makes sense and what not, that easy. At least we tried it ... instead of watching from far .
Thanks buddy, actually those would be the missing. I add to OP. Code: schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Windows\Customer Experience Improvement Program\Consolidator" /Disable schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Windows\Customer Experience Improvement Program\Uploader" /Disable schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\QueueReporting" /Disable schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Windows\Shell\FamilySafetyUpload" /Disable schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Office\OfficeTelemetryAgentLogOn" /Disable schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Office\OfficeTelemetryAgentFallBack" /Disable schtasks /Change /TN "Microsoft\Office\Office 15 Subscription Heartbeat" /Disable
What trouble. It will become a script with nice menu and for doggie part of firstlogon script . @REST OP updated with new info.
Forget it, it really didn't works (for me)! I tested that already yesterday! URL's in the list of blocked URL's in PeerBlock still was get accessed from that Laptop which runs W10 incl. PeerBlock!
I plan to load the host file on my router running ddwrt in the coming days, just need a solid way to implement it without using iptables. Maybe DNS or Privoxy.
What router do you have? I don't want to take this off topic but I pretty much figured out how to do this with DDWRT. Private message me if you want.
