Destroy Windows 10 Spying concentrates on a handful of privacy settings and tweaks only. You may use it to disable spyware tasks in the Task Scheduler, block Microsoft domains in the hosts file, to turn Windows Update on or off, and to remove select applications or all applications from the operating system.

The program does not support backup and restore functionality, and there are no explanations for the tweaks it offers.

While some are self-explanatory, others reveal nothing about the task that gets carried out when they are run. For instance, you don't know which tasks are disabled in the Task Scheduler when you select the tweak to disable spyware tasks in it.

this piece of software have problem when spybot is used on computer...
you cant write in etc/host and you cant delete/add/modify a key/value in registry... (winblows-me 8.1, spybot, avast)... same under xp running in VM (also avast and spybot)
but it looks cool, so five of five stars from me :)
 
Any SW to keep Wndoze from spying is worth downloading and testing. Thank You very much for this InternationalHealth.info!
Sincerely,
Sledge

PS: @ Neno4real, I haven't had any WebRoot products in my top five list of anti anything in more than ten years. You may want to check some of the rating sites for anti virus, anti spyware and anti maleware and see what's in the top five and you may want to update from Spypot to Malewarebytes (My favorite and top rated anti Maleware/Spyware) or some other software that has surpassed Spybot or any of WebRoots applications, in my humble opinion? Just making this suggestion to try to help as a lot of my customers have just stuck with what worked in the past and haven't checked on what's best lately??? I advise my customers to go with the free version of Avast along with the free version of Malewarebytes and have had no issues that couldn't be reversed, repaired and recovered from those that were running these two free apps together. I also practice what I preach and run them both alone on my Windoze machines Neno4real, I do like your "Winblows" and will use it in the future if you don't mind? :ok:
