The O&O Shutup tool is a portable application for Windows 10 which makes it very easy to use as you do not have to install anything. It opens up with a long list of settings that you can toggle on or off. These settings are categorized under various headings like Security, Privacy, Location Services, User Behavior, Windows Updates and Miscellaneous. The notorious Telemetry settings can be found under the Security category.

The application is pretty simple to use and all you have to do is toggle the flip switched against various settings. You do not have to toggle off all the settings given in the O&O Shutup application. You can just toggle off the Telemetry, Peer-to-Peer updates, Windows Driver Updates and other such known problem causing settings. A green color button means privacy is being protected while a red color button means default Windows 10 settings are being used.

If you somehow manage to make a mess with these settings and something stops working in Windows (for example, if you make changes to the automatic updates related settings and then Windows stops updating), then you can restore all the factory settings from the menubar by selecting Actions → Undo all changes.

O&O Shutup tool can help you enhance the Windows 10 privacy settings, so that your personal information is not revealed to anyone. It also offers some other desired tweaks like disabling the Windows Defender, if you are already using some other antivirus software.
