2kurupt: Dud, I take it that you are knowledgeable and at least know these things are not difficult and am not paranoid, I know how these things work. These are America companies and you are legally bind to disclose to consumers the type of information you are gathering, how you are gathering that information, who you will disclose that information and the specifics of the information you are gathering. I disclose this to my customer, else I will be in trouble. Go back and read Apple, Android and Windows 10 User disclosure agreements, the same agreement written in fine print that, you agreed to before installing those OS, they will tell you in details what the type of data they will be harvesting from you and you must agreed to it, before they will allow you to install the OS or upgrade it...then come back and tell us what Apple vs Android vs Windows 10 indicates they will be collecting and you will conclude that, Windows 10's is unprecedented. |

linearity: I am not disagreeing with the fact that these companies gather & utilise consumer's info for their benefit, heck that's what Google was built on that's why they're the king of internet ads. But then if you have these views & strongly disapprove their actions then you might as well boycott their devices altogether, switch to core open source systems like Linux, sailfish os etc or better still design your own platform. Mac, Android os, iOS, old Windows versions & indeed Windows 10 are all the same in terms of acquiring data & using same (Fine print or not). People are not altogether oblivious of these so called "data harvesting" that's why they're urged to divulge as little information as possible. Lastly I say you're being paranoid coz you seem to put all your focus on Microsoft which is just new to the party, I bet you already own a Facebook account, use whatsapp & probably Instagram too. Do you know just about how much info Facebook alone already got on you? Now that almost all mega tech producers are switching to cloud computing & storage what will you have the consumers do? If you don't use these services which I doubt, then thumbs up coz you might be regressing to the stone age in a bit to protect your precious data. |

Step 1. Keep Calm, I have a fix that works. Step 2. Search the internet with [url]Bing.com[/url] for your driver for your WiFi (e.g. Lenovo) and download it (this is a backup for the next step). Note: You may have to use a spare PC/ phone or borrow a friend's computer in order to get the backup of the driver for your specific model of PC (e.g. Lenovo). Links to OEM Drivers (Note: This is not an exhaustive list, if your PC brand isn't listed below, search online with Bing - Example search: "Lenovo W530 drivers": am not allowed to put links up, please go to your laptop manufacturers website to download drivers. ( never download drivers from 3rd parties) Step 3. Go to "Device Manager" > "Network Adapters" > Find your Wireless driver (likely named atheros/broadcom/intel) and right-click, "Uninstall" driver. (Now I know what you're thinking... This dude is trying to troll me. I'm not. It goes against what you'd think but thankfully you made a backup just in case in step #2). Make sure you select "Remove driver software" - click "OK" Step 4: Once it uninstalls, reboot your PC. Step 5: Once rebooted, click on the wireless icon in your system tray and reconnect to your WiFi. It worked for me, hopefully it will work for you. At this point you should be good to go. If this did not work for you, reinstall your WiFi driver you downloaded as a backup. USB internet will work until a better fix or update comes out. Best of luck! GloryIsaac: |
