What does HackerNews think of privatezilla?
👀👮🐢🔥Performs a privacy & security check of Windows 10
Language:
C#
Not OP, but here are a couple I like:
https://www.oo-software.com/en/shutup10 (Win10/11, well-maintained. Closed source but coming from trusted devs with commercial interest in shipping a quality freebie that publicizes their other software)
https://github.com/builtbybel/privatezilla and https://wpd.app/ (both not super maintained)
I heard of this [0] software called O&O shutup that can disable all the calling home in Windows 11, does anyone have experience with it? I used to use privatezilla [1] in Windows 10 but I think they don't support Windows 11 yet.

There are tools for this, don't go alone (block telemetry via hosts file):

Privatezilla [1] helps with many nuisances. Among others, you can block Edge installation with it.
Bloatbox is an open source alternative with a GUI: https://github.com/builtbybel/bloatbox
They have also made a privacy and security related app https://github.com/builtbybel/privatezilla
best privacy/debloating app to me is Privatezilla. So it seems to be from the same dev. didn't know
