How do I disable this windows keep on ringing home... DAMMIT!
If it weren't for Forza and Gears, I wouldn't even be turning the damn thing on. I still can't figure out, how to stop it from using my internet without permission. How do I disable onedrive pop up if I don't have a onedrive account? How do I uninstall Skype? How do I uninstall all the apps that keep asking for updates everytime I turn "on" store?
Seriously, this windows is so crap!
For the automagically reinstalling apps (Candy Crush and so on), I did this and turned off "Occasionally show suggestions in Start" in Settings>Personalization>Start. That seems to have stopped that whole stupid thing.
I just now right clicked on the OneDrive cloud and set it up not to start when Windows starts...so we'll see on that. Before that, I just unassociated my PC from OneDrive so the app would run, but not do anything.
As for the whole "phone home" thing that is Windows 10, there's a bajillion security and privacy settings I've seen on the web, some of which I've disabled/enabled kind of randomly. I'm sure there's a detailed writeup somewhere.
Update: To turn off the OneDrive dealie, you have to change some settings in the Local Group Policy editor, I guess because digging into obscure system settings is so much easier than a yes/no checkbox "Use OneDrive" in the system settings...
