I did grab the MS Windows insider edition which I believe means that Microsoft Windows Telemetry is on by default. Windows Telemetry reports back to Microsoft almost everything you do and slows down even a fast system very much. I also, had several programs crash that I use on a regular basis, and presented no problems on the previous version of Windows. So below is a method of removing Windows Telemetry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I used the Registry to fix the issue. I have included a download-able *.reg file which fixes the problem. Here are the steps to fix the problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Download  the file <a href=\"http:\/\/www.carriersnc.com\/downloads1\/blog\/Disable_Allow_Telemetry.txt\">http:\/\/www.carriersnc.com\/downloads1\/blog\/Disable_Allow_Telemetry.txt<\/a><br><br><\/li><li>Rename the downloaded file from Disable_Allow_Telemetry.txt to Disable_Allow_Telemetry.reg.<br><br><\/li><li>Double click the file Disable_Allow_Telemetry.reg<br><br><\/li><li>When the warning about it could be dangerous to add information into the registry in this manner appears, you should click yes. <br><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"189\" class=\"wp-image-52\" style=\"width: 600px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carriersnc.com\/carrierblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/2019.05.23-002-1.png\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carriersnc.com\/carrierblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/2019.05.23-002-1.png 559w, https:\/\/www.carriersnc.com\/carrierblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/2019.05.23-002-1-300x94.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><br><br><\/li><li>If all goes well then you should see the following message &#8220;The keys and values contained in Disable_Allow_Telemetry.reg have been successfully added to the registry.&#8221;<br><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"143\" class=\"wp-image-57\" style=\"width: 600px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carriersnc.com\/carrierblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/2019.05.24-002-1.png\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carriersnc.com\/carrierblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/2019.05.24-002-1.png 557w, https:\/\/www.carriersnc.com\/carrierblog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/2019.05.24-002-1-300x72.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>That is all there is to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I hope that helps,<br>Jim<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Steps to Remove Microsoft Telemetry I installed Windows 10 version 1903 (OS Build 18343.1) on Tuesday and by Wednesday I realized that my computer was much slower.
