Thread: Quick Guide: How to disable Windows Telemetry in Windows Update

How to Disable telemetry on Windows 7.

The updates which do the telemetry are:

KB:3068708
KB:3022345
KB:3075249
KB:3080149

Execute these commands to remove the updates which do the telemetry:

Code:

wusa /uninstall /kb:3068708 /quiet /norestart
wusa /uninstall /kb:3022345 /quiet /norestart
wusa /uninstall /kb:3075249 /quiet /norestart
wusa /uninstall /kb:3080149 /quiet /norestart

Or otherwise, you can do as follow:

Press "Win + R" and execute "services.msc"
Open "Diagnostics Tracking Service"
Then there is something like "Startup Type", disable it (there is the button to disable it in the combobox menu) and click on "Interrupt" button.

That's all, these are two options to disable Windows 7 telemetry manually.

You can also try freeware which have inbuilt functions to disable telemetry for specific apps.

Thank you
