It also collects telemetry data of your system usage, app usage, visited websites, etc. Microsoft collects your usage statistics through its built-in telemetry system.

This feature collects user activity information and sends it to the Microsoft server. What is Windows Telemetry? Telemetry is an automated process that concerns data collection from a remote PC in the background and transmitting it back to Microsoft. Microsoft uses this collected data to monitor and improve the operating system, enhance security, troubleshoot problems, and improve the overall user experience. If you’re concerned about privacy, Microsoft allows you to turn off this feature on Windows 11. Unfortunately, Microsoft has not provided a straightforward option to turn it off. However, the built-in Settings app includes several choices for disabling telemetry and diagnostic data collecting. In this gearupwindows article, we will guide you on turning off Telemetry on Windows 11. Windows 11 sends two types of diagnostic data to the Microsoft server:- Required diagnostic data – collects limited information for understanding the device and its configuration, including basic device information, quality-related information, app compatibility, and Microsoft Store. Optional diagnostic data – contains additional details about your device and its settings, capabilities, and device health. You can disable sending both types of diagnostic data on Windows 11.
