Redstone 4 is the update coming to Windows 10 this spring. As usual, it will come with various news and improvements for users.

This improvement seeks to increase the one that was already introduced in Windows 10 Fall Creators Update when new privacy options were introduced for users. For that you have to use the Windows 10 configuration panel. It will continue to gain prominence and gain new functions.

More privacy in Windows 10

In the image above you can see what the configuration menu will look like. Some additional features are introduced that allow users to increase their privacy. New options appear that refer to images, documents or videos. Thus, by selecting each of them we can manage the permissions to our liking. Or change the directory they are in.

We can limit the access of Windows 10 applications. But it will be the user at all times who decides how to do it. Something positive, since we can manage our own privacy in our team to our liking.

These images and new functions have been known thanks to the Windows 10 Insider Program. So we can already know in advance some of the news that are coming soon to the operating system. The Redstone 4 update is coming in the spring. So in the coming weeks surely more news will be known.
