Aegis: Block all Windows 10 components on Windows 7 and 8 - gHacks Tech News

I tried out the free uninstall script on

Aegis for Windows 7/8.x - Block all known Microsoft spying and Windows 10 upgrade elements | technology

which removes dozends of Microsoft unnecessary, so-called "telemetry" (many call them spy) patches from a running Windows 7 or 8 system.

After execution of the script a couple of weeks ago I observed no bad impact.

So I can highly recommend the script. Scripts is open source and easy to view.

Give it a try. Its a must for every security-sensitive user
