Windows 10 can carry on slurping even when you're sure you yelled STOP!

@ Doctor Syntax

Or just configure Windows 10 to how you like it .. it's Windows, it's meant to be configured. Out-of-the-box is just that, out-of-the-box. So set it up how you like.

Don't like Metro? One powershell command gets rid of the whole lot of it. Want it more private? Turn off the telemetry service (set it to Disabled), and make whatever adjustments you want in the Privacy settings found in Settings.

So much fuss over the obviously generic out-of-the-box settings when it's so easy to make it how you want it.

Basically, just disable the "Connected User Experiences and Telemetry" service.

You might also go through the Privacy settings, of course, and set everything to private. If you are running Pro, you can use gpedit.msc to lock down most everything should you want to go to extremes.
