Disable Diagnostic and Feedback data collection in Windows 10

To improve Windows 10 Microsoft is very keen to collect usage data from users automatically and by asking questions. You will then notice how, every now and then, an invitation to comment Windows 10 appears in the notification center, answering questions such as "would you recommend Windows 10 to your friends"> I do not feel like contesting this way of acting by Microsoft, but surely, after a certain period of use, you may prefer to stop receiving these types of consultations.
To change the frequency with which Microsoft asks for our opinion on Windows 10 or to deactivate the feedback, it is necessary to open the Settings from the Start menu and go to the Privacy section.

From the Privacy Settings, in the left column, scroll down and click on Feedback and diagnostics . On the right side, scroll all the way down to limit the frequency of feedback requests which by default is set to " Automatic ". You can then choose a more precise feedback frequency or deactivate it by putting the option on NEVER . This way Windows 10 should no longer ask for any feedback.
In the same screen, at the top, you can set the Diagnostic Data to Basic instead of Complete, to limit the collection of diagnostic data. Other options to be deactivated are Improve input and typing and Customized Experiences .
Scrolling further down this Settings screen, you can view the diagnostic data collected by Microsoft on the PC and delete them completely.
Staying in Privacy Settings, in the left column scroll down until you find Diagnostica App and disable the options to allow access to the app diagnostic information on this device and also the permission to access the app diagnostic information
To disable feedback requests, you can search the Start menu for the Hub Feedback application and disconnect it. This application is useful for writing a suggestion or reporting a problem to Microsoft.
In the writing screen you can also choose the category relating to the message you want to send and attach a screenshot, that is a photograph of the screen showing the problem. Applying feedback works through the Microsoft account.
