FIGURE 5-11 The Feedback & Diagnostics section of Privacy settings allows you to control the amount of diagnostic<br />

data sent to Microsoft. Windows Enterprise and Education editions offer one additional option.<br />

Microsoft goes to great lengths to anonymize the information sent as part of this program<br />

( sometimes referred to internally as telemetry), stripping it of personal details and using a unique<br />

device ID that allows analysts to determine whether repeated instances of a particular problem<br />

report are from multiple devices or instead represent multiple faults in an individual device.<br />

By default, this option is set to Full, allowing Microsoft engineers to see details about how you<br />

use Windows features and apps as well as advanced error-reporting options that might include user<br />

content. This setting cannot be changed for devices that are enrolled in the Windows Insider program.<br />

The Enhanced option contains fewer details but still contains the potential to leak information from<br />

personal documents.<br />
