New Creators Update security settings are a hit and will be coming to other versions of Windows 10

When today you opt for one operating system or another, what is one of your main concerns? Maybe stability, applications with which it counts, but above all the security and privacy that it offers for your data. Something that is increasingly valued by users and companies. Something that the developers and companies behind the big operating systems know.

And this is the case of Microsoft, which is in some trouble before users due to recent problems in which different versions of Windows have been attacked using some of its vulnerabilities.It is true that the first responsible are the owners of the equipment for not having them updated, something that does not mean that Redmond does not cover the problem. On the contrary, they face it with solutions like some of the ones we have already seen.

"

And they continue to work on improving the privacy of the data we store; This is not a trivial aspect, especially given the large amount of information that its operating system and its applications collect about all of us. Data used to improve the usability of the system according to Microsoft (something that other companies also sell) and that must be protected."

And improved privacy protection is something we've had with us since the advent of Windows 10 Creators Update, since New privacy controls were included so that the user can configure the way in which the operating system handles our data and all with an improved and more accessible interface.

A configuration that has been liked a lot, so much so that Microsoft already affirms that this improvement will reach all versions of Windows 10 a throughout the next few weeks, that is, to all those that are prior to Windows 10 Creators Update.

An enhancement that will will require users to review their privacy settings again if they want to access the new settings, which is which the system will create an alert that will be repeated up to five times.

"

In this way, users are warned that they can improve the security and privacy of the data stored on their machine while in parallel they will be reminded that they are running on an old version of Windows 10 and that it is convenient to jump to the Creators Update."
