There are many apps that can block Windows 10 from sending any information from your computer to Microsoft, but here's a clear-cut solution that can be easily used by those less experienced too.

Simply called Win10 Spy Disabler, this little app does pretty much the same thing as all the other apps developed to block telemetry services in Windows 10, but as compared to all of them, it includes easier-to-use options that do not force users to get through a complex configuration process.

For example, the app can disable spying services and scheduled tasks, telemetry and data collection, remove default Windows apps, show hidden and system files, disable Office 2016 telemetry, and block Microsoft telemetry hosts.

At the same time, it also includes some other configuration settings for the operating system, so you can disable recent files and folders history, optimize NTFS partition settings, and ask for confirmation on file deletion.

Obviously, the lack of configuration settings, such as the possibility of selecting which services to disable or apps to remove, might not be good news for more advanced users, but it's pretty clear that this is the kind of program supposed to be used by beginners exclusively.

Overall, this is definitely a good addition to your anti-Windows 10 data collection arsenal, so go download Win10 Spy Disabler to take the app for a spin.
