Turn off Windows 10’s Built-in Keylogger and Trackers in 10 STEPS

Most people don’t know that Windows 10 has a built in keylogger virus and tracks everything you do in real time. Obviously, hackers from the NSA or even malicious Blackhats can gain access to this data and use it to their own nefarious ends.

So, for your convenience and safety, I’m providing 10 easy steps to disable all Windows 10 tracking features. Feel free to copy this and share it with your friends.

Get rid of the Windows 10 Keylogger and Trackers with these steps:

STEP 1: Click your search-bar and enter: inking and typing.

STEP 2: Select Inking & typing personalization privacy settings or Turn off typing history from the Settings tab. Microsoft explained this feature as a way to improve customer’s language preferences and search suggestions. The truth is that this is a keylogger. It logs every keystroke you perform and sends it back to Microsoft in real time.
