Microsoft renames Diagnostic Tracking Service to Connected User Experiences and Telemetry

Microsoft launched the first big update for its Windows 10 operating system this month and while it introduced several new features and much-needed improvements, issues were reported as well.

Probably the most common one was that Microsoft rest some or even all default apps and settings in the update.

If you are not observant about those things, you may not have noticed that settings were reset to their default values which, at least where privacy comes into play, is quite problematic.

While it does not take long to restore the previous settings and make other apps the default programs again on Windows 10, something like this should never have happened in first place.

Windows 10 version 1511 ships with another change that may cause confusion at first.

Yeah, Microsoft makes it hard for even defenders like me to stick up for them when they do stuff like this. I really don't mind their defaults during the initial install of Windows 10, but I do mind when upgrades change back changes that were made via Windows 10 provided settings menus.

I too noticed some of my privacy settings had changed back to the original defaults. Not cool MS.
