I prefer to stay one release behind, as it typically provides me with a stable system with full Microsoft support, and I’m able to identify what issues I may face. I always use the release of a new feature update to be the sign that I need to ensure that all of my main computers are on the prior release.
Time after time we’ve seen the first few updates after each major release full of fixes for bugs and issues triggered by the new release.
Many of us Windows admins consider it unwise to install either a new feature release or a new version for several months after it’s been released. My advice is to hold off installing either release for the time being. Complicating matters somewhat, if your computer meets the Windows 11 hardware requirements, you might additionally see that OS as available for installation in Windows Update. Microsoft makes it easy for you to opt into beta testing, but not as easy to opt out. It’s up to you whether you accept the tradeoff or you choose to wipe the collected information.Once again it’s that time when a new Windows 10 feature update is imminent - in this case, version 21H2, the Windows 10 November 2021 Update - and when you need to decide whether or not you want to participate in its unpaid beta testing process. On the other hand, in exchange for this convenience, Microsoft is asking you to trust them to use your data privately and responsibly in the future.
Some reasons are benign and even helpful-for example, tracking your location might allow Microsoft to give you better directions to your favorite restaurant. Why is Microsoft keeping all this data in the first place? If you click around the Privacy section, you can find explanations of what the company might want to do with your information. Depending on the devices you use, Microsoft might also keep logs of your location, and you can also wipe this information if you want. For example, if you’ve been using Microsoft apps like the Edge web browser and the Cortana personal assistant, you can view and clear your activity logs from here. From this page, you can delete the information that Microsoft has been collecting about you. To see Microsoft’s available privacy options, open your online account page and click Privacy.
