Keyboard entries can be recorded, private data may be sent to Microsoft and various applications, and system settings can allow more data sharing than many users are comfortable with. Some Windows functions are designed for convenience, but they can also raise privacy and security concerns.

To reduce these risks, users have to manually adjust numerous Windows privacy and security settings. Without expert knowledge, this can be difficult because many options are deeply embedded in the system.
