    I know abbodi has threads and different scripts on here, but I was wondering everything needed to assure no telemetry and Windows 10 nags. Also I remember copying and pasting a script from abbodi to put in cmd to stop the gmx thingy and windows 10 nags, are those replaced by the new downloadable scripts? Thank you.

    Disconnect from the Internet. There are Several Threads You could read to stop the "Win 10 upgrade telemetry and upgrade" ranging from simple programs to scripts. But, "Telemetry" is a necessary part of keeping Your OS up to date.

    no longer my OS; I disconnected my windose pc from the internet the moment m$ invented "Telemetry"; I cannot be bothered with preventing "Telemetry" sold as a necessary part of keeping your OS up to date.it is just an essential part of the m$ sales patter, imho.. i simply [sic.] installed linux..and i lived happily ever after. while i appreciate your postings of upgrading a w10 pc to w7, the problem still remains with w7and 8. daily kb updates, with a truckload of sh**t... "Telemetry" is just a pain. and windose is a dying OS. there is a free, open source alternative to it. just my 2 cents.

    I just use GWX Control Panel, disables upgrades to Windows 10. Don't care about 'telemetry', so it doesn't matter.
