Ramblings of an old Doc
More than 200 tweaks in more than 10 sections
Published on February 2, 2020 By DrJBHL In Personal Computing

Razvan Serea wrote a good review of Windows Ultimate Tweaker 4.7

over at Neowin, including the change log. There are more than two hundred new tweaks, and most pertinently new ones in the privacy and security sections...nice for the folks who are new to W10 from W7 and who are (rightfully) concerned about the former.

The full list of the tweaks are here: https://www.thewindowsclub.com/list-of-tweaks-available-in-uwt4 .

Here's a screenie showing privacy tweaks. The red arrow simulates my cursor. Note the explanation the app shows for "Disable telemetry".

As with any app, and especially one like this one, I'd advise creating a restore point before tweaking away. It's very convenient the app reminds you to do so, as well.

It's a great app...one many of us had and probably forgotten all about, and well worth downloading, here: https://www.thewindowsclub.com/your-download-of-uwt4-will-start-in-5-seconds and as the link mentions, download commences 5 seconds after landing there.

It is freeware, without ads or other software with it.

I use Wise Care 365. That's all the tweaking I need. If I didn't have Wise Care 365 I'd give this a try.

I used Ultimate Windows Tweaker a few years ago with Vista and Win 7, but with various reformats and new PCs I just forgot to use it, so thanks, Doc, thanks to your post I've reconnected again and will get some enjoyment from it.

I use both Chuck, Ultimate Windows Tweaker can do some great things too.
