![]() ![]() I was trying to recommend one tool to my friend - well known tool. Like one of most common questions - "what is the best media player"? Damn, is it that difficult to install 5 or 6 of them and check which one is the best for user? No, better ask, because installing programs is too much, it's dangerous process that may go wrong somehow and probably PSU stop working after a while. And never even trying to install anything new. But lot of users I know just spend lot of money on their computers and uses few selected programs. Why most of people should configure something anyway if they made clean install or reinstall Windows every month or week? Others, who uses their computer and have more interesting hobby than installing Windows every month, knows good tools and uses them. Look at this a little different - people in most cases don't care about settings, they prefer to complain. People still believe in myths, still the first (and mostly last) choice is standard set of programs (like "use VLC, is the best!" or "Total Commander is best filemanager", or "Thunderbird is best email client" - even if it's not true and these programs are the only programs used by person who talk about what is the best choice). I just wish there was someone who made a living by testing software on test equipment, who people trust a little more than me, stranger of the internet.Įven if there is someone who testing everything, lot of programs etc. I also don't expect anyone to trust it blindly. I also don't open what I don't need, so getting back to where I was in the event I get a clean state isn't painful. So the forced reboot thing isn't an issue for me. I don't do tasks that require the computer to be unattended for long periods of time (this is a major source of why people hate forced reboots), I frequently save my work, and a lot of applications I use can retain the state of what I was doing last anyway. And if I can't do it, then I shouldn't trust it because anything that can dive that deep in the OS that an administrative account can't do is scary. ![]() Whatever it can do, I can probably do anyway. I really just don't like yet another piece of software that to me doesn't really add much value to how I use my computer I don't use it nor plan on using it because: I posted this before searching the forum. If the URL above gets scrapped, just google for "shutup10".ĮDIT: I did it wrong. You can find SU10 under "products > protect data & systems". And I would love for someone to check this software out and tell a) me I'm an idiot or b) others how awesome it is. I'm just irritated by everyone's behavior. On the other hand, the same people keep talking shit on Windows 10, which to me probably thanks to SU10 is a delight to use. But whenever I tell foreigners about O&O and SU10 they think I'm nuts, because "why should they trust software of an unknown source". SU10 is by a German software company called O&O, that I know personally for their disk management software that I used in the very early 2000s, so I had no issue to trust them. It also allows you to disable many of the "phone home" features, that Microsoft hides. Next time I shut down or restart the PC it will tell me "shut down and update" instead of "shut down" (same with restart), but I think that's just fine. In my experience Windows downloads the update, but doesn't force me to reboot. Like forced updates! Is that real? Because it is actually hard for me to believe. It's a piece of software that allows you to disable "all"(tm) the annoyances of Windows 10, that everyone keeps whining about. O&O ShutUp10 presents you with all essential settings to help achieve this in one location – you need no previous IT knowledge, and there is no need to change the Windows 10 system settings manually.This is a thing that I never understood, because from the very first day I upgraded from 7 to 10, I used ShutUp10, recommended by a friend of mine, who is a software dev. Your privacy should be up to you and not anyone else. Do not pass on your user data and diagnostics.It allows more control over your operating system: The program does offer to create a system restore point, which is advised when tinkering around, just in case you want to undo what you have tweaked (or rendered a broken mess), as well as an option to restore Windows 10's default privacy settings. You will be able to select from almost 50 options to tailor your Windows 10 experience to your privacy comfort level. The power of privacy is right at your fingertips - choose which unwanted functions you wish to deactivate. O&O ShutUp10 is a free privacy tool that gives you full control over which functions in Windows 10 & 11 you choose to use and how far data gets shared. ![]()
