Just wanna take a moment to let people know about a very, very good and reputable tool for privacy and windows. I personally think it should be recommended on the main Privacy Guides site if you use windows. This is not a substitute for using Linux, however.
Linux is better, but if you have to use Windows, the Chris Titus Tech tool is quite easy to use, extremely powerful, and has been actively developed for a long time. You can set power-user privacy options easily, massively debloat your windows installation, install programs, and easily set your update settings to security only, if that is what you want.

Just wondering about the communty’s and mod’s thoughts (like Jonah). I’ve used the tool for a long time and I am always impressed with it, especially as it comes from somebody who has a sterling reputation on computer and Linux know-how
Despite using Linux every day on servers, it’s somehow impossible to move away from windows if you actually have to work with it. I think privacy guides needs a section on windows at least to make it more “private” if that’s even possible.
