Reefa Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Microsoft has just made it even harder to use pirated games and unauthorized hardware in conjunction with Windows 10.A clause in the services agreement, Section 7b to be precise, states that Windows 10 users have to allow Microsoft to automatically check for counterfeited software, however, it falls short of proposing any punishment for breaking the rules, according to Alphr."We may automatically check your version of the software and download software updates or configuration changes, including those that prevent you from accessing the Services, playing counterfeit games, or using unauthorised hardware peripheral devices," reads the agreement.It means Microsoft can automatically detect when counterfeit versions of Office, Adobe Creative Suite and others are being used before disabling them. It would also seem that hacked hardware can also be blocked by Windows 10.Get rid of pirate games now!The agreement covers various different versions of Windows 10 including those used on PCs, smartphones, the Xbox 360 and Xbox One. Therefore, now is the time to start hiding your pirate games and software before Microsoft takes them away!Prospective Windows 10 users can, of course, upgrade to the new OS on any qualifying machine even if it once had a pirated version of Windows 7 or Windows 8 on it although you do have to pay for the privilege.http://www.techradar.com/news/software/operating-systems/microsoft-can-delete-pirated-games-from-windows-10-1301994 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elrond Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 relax all:It’s not clear what “unauthorized hardware peripheral devices” refers to, but “counterfeit games” means any first-party Microsoft published game. The service agreement wouldn’t cover Steam games or any other third-party desktop software, so there’s no reason to think they know about that illicit copy of Adobe Photoshop you’re harboring. The information is interesting amid other privacy concerns related to Windows 10, however.and ms games are :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steven36 Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 Microsoft didn't say nothing about the TPBThis article here was what stated the whole Hypehttp://www.pcauthority.com.au/News/407894,microsoft-can-disable-your-pirated-games-and-illegal-hardware.aspxWhat Microsoft said was7. Updates to the Services or Software, and Changes to These Terms. b. Sometimes you’ll need software updates to keep using the Services. We may automatically check your version of the software and download software updates or configuration changes, including those that prevent you from accessing the Services, playing counterfeit games, or using unauthorized hardware peripheral devices. You may also be required to update the software to continue using the Services.

Sylence Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 You can't stick forever to Windows 7. it has it's cons too. so better start learning how to solve this problem. you can install Windows 10, use Kaspersky Internet security 2016 to block the whole Microsoft programs (just with 4 clicks) and use Windows 10 even safer than Windows XP. use a proxy to give internet access only to certain apps (e.g chrome.exe). Windows 10 is definitely more beautiful than Win7 or Win8.1 so to use it with the same security level as previous Windows versions you need to spend some time to configure it.
