Disable Nvidia Telemetry Portable

Without denying that providing a better user experience is quite important nowadays, some companies are crossing the line. If you installed or updated your Nvidia drivers lately, then you probably noticed a new service from the company in the Task Manager.

Disable Nvidia Telemetry Portable is a lightweight utility designed to prevent the telemetry services associated with Nvidia and hence, protect your privacy.

Generally speaking, telemetry refers to a method of spying on users by collecting data and sending it a third party source, which in this case is Nvidia. At its source, the practice is not entirely bad, considering that it enables companies to detect broader issues and tackle them right away.

Unfortunately, similarly to other corporations who employ the practice, Nvidia does not disclose the type of information that they are collecting. There is no information available about how the data is stored and who can access it.

In the light of these facts, it is natural that users are concerned about privacy. Luckily, the tiny app can block the telemetry services that Nvidia included in its driver updates without any previous notification.

The program comes with a minimalistic, yet user-friendly interface that includes three main tabs, namely Telemetry, Event Log and Settings. While in the first tab you can use the main function of the tool, you can check out possible events that occurred when you are away from the keyboard in the long.

In the settings tab, you have the possibility to configure the app to run in the background and disable Nvidia telemetry tasks and services on every startup or every day. You can also just run the utility solely when updating the drivers if you find it more convenient.

All things considered, Disable Nvidia Telemetry Portable is a lightweight application that you can run everything you are updating the Nvidia drivers on your system and completely block Nvidia telemetry services from gathering information that you may not want to reveal
