Many Thanks for taking the time to respond with helpful advice and details.
I’ll look into installing that tomorrow.
I know I’m repeating myself, but I detest how Microsoft treats us.
I wish I bought a Mac Airbook even if it was twice the price of the new Intel laptop...
RE: “Bass turds just over rode those security and privacy settings,
Yes, I’ve seen that happen.
Try the program linked below, Spybot Anti-Beacon. You will probably have to shut off your antivirus to run it, at least the first time. Anti-Beacon can be set to re-immunize your computer every time you boot, to counteract Microsoft “accidentally” overriding your security settings.
The program can cause problems, as you will see in posts on the Spybot forums, but I think it is worthwhile.

With Anti-Beacon installed and all the privacy-violating features shut off, I have to admit that I am slowly coming around to liking Windows 10.”

Both programs require tweaking, and both can cause problems. Watch out for high CPU usage from Anti-Beacon.
