SME: This is not how Windows 11 calls home

While large companies can easily prevent Windows 11 from sending data home with policies and solutions, in smaller companies this is often manual work. O&O software can prevent this with the free antispy tool O&O ShutUp10 ++.

For the planned release of Windows 11, O&O Software is releasing the new version of the popular antispy tool: O&O ShutUp10 ++. Without a long search, users can easily close the various security gaps in Windows 11 according to their personal needs.

The problem on Windows 11

Keystrokes are logged, personal data is passed on to Microsoft and various apps. WiFi passwords no longer have to be entered, as some services share them with Facebook contacts. Or connect the computer to a public network without being asked, even if it is unprotected. This makes daily operation as easy and comfortable as possible, but it also poses a security risk. In order to close this security gap, these data transfer functions must be deactivated manually in Windows 11. It is not easy without expert knowledge, as some of the setting options are very hidden.

The portable solution for Windows 11

With the new freeware O&O ShutUp10 ++, both under Windows 10 and now under Windows 11, deliberately unwanted functions are deactivated and the transfer of sensitive personal data to Microsoft is prevented. The integrated tips make it clear which functions can be safely deactivated. All changes can be undone with one click. In addition to the expansion for Windows 11, the user interface has also been fundamentally revised and support for dark mode has been integrated.

Important: O&O ShutUp10 ++ is freeware that does not have to be installed, but can be run directly (portable). No further - unwanted and unnecessary - software is loaded or installed. The tool is run once, adjusts all data settings. After that, the tool no longer needs to be on the computer. Administrators can also set a restore point with a click.
