content: Major Windows update resets all privacy settings So I just got the major Windows 10 update (Windows Developer/Feature update, version 1703). Even though it shows a splash screen asking you for your basic privacy settings (which most, if not all, should be set to "off"), it will still reset them through the update. To make sure all of your privacy settings are where you want them, go to Settings > Privacy, and go through the entire list on the left-hand side.
