Windows 10 Privacy Build

BugusMugus

Hello,

I'm in search for a Windows 10 build with the most privacy (that can be) and all telemetry and ads and error reporting, diagnostics etc. disabled. Something that it's somehow decluttered and have some hardening & security.

I know it's impossible to say " Windows 10 " and " Privacy " on the same line but I'm willing to find something that can be by default way better than official version from Microsoft.

I saw these 2 build here:

https://teamos.xyz/threads/gamers-edition-windows-10-pro-21h1-19043-1237.160979/
https://teamos.xyz/threads/windows-10-neon-gamer-edition-19043-1237-compactlite.160819/

They say they have everything disabled and sounds great that it's something custom that works at least on paper way better than the official Windows. But could I trust those build or at least are they somehow better then those:

https://www.revi.cc
https://ameliorated.info

I don't know what's the difference between those TeamOS build ( or any other from that forum ) and those Revi/Ameliorated builds that says they are up-to-date and they have lots of security included.

Are any of those better than Windows 10 (clean from Microsoft) with O&O ShutUp10++ ?

@Fox @OpSec would love your input here.

Edit 1: I also found those 2 builds:

https://github.com/Heaven-OS/HeavenOS ( crawenOS got deleted the Project and the Dev has quitting. )

GHOST SPECTRE : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nJ418uicpk8

So how does all those Windows 10/11 any different from eachother?

Also I though Windows 11 it's pretty buggy and it's not that "Privacy" friendly than Windows 10 (speaking strictly about disabling and tweaking stuff to get to a certain privacy level ).

BugusMugus Sorry friend, but, for privacy, the best Windows out there is... the one that doesn't exist. Use Linux.

Personally, I do not trust any modded windows. I prefer clean windows 10 with hardening it manually.

BugusMugus

user And what would you use to harden it?

The best privacy tweak windows 10/11 is ghost spectre was introduced to me by a friend, he’s a professional ex Microsoft worker and he has been this for 2 years unlike crawen which as a fan made discord server of ghost spectre.. I use ghost spectre for 2 years and my friend for 5 years, when I build gaming pc/laptop I put ghost spectre on there and ghost can’t be found.. you can only find him on Facebook or YouTube

OpSec I don't know about Ghost, I've heard mixed feelings about every " CUSTOM OS " out there.

Like everyone says it's way better to just go with a clean Windows install and from there just tweak it yourself with OOSU or other github scripts.

You can't really know, especially if you have no idea about tweaked windows, what he done (removed/added/edited, etc).

Speaked with someone that have a well known Github script for Windows Privacy and he said every custom OS it's a waste of time for privacy. Way better just go with clean install and disable what you won't need with an open source program or OOSU.

So could you elaborate about the Ghost Spectre? I'm looking only for Privacy, nothing about Gaming.
