Fellers, we're not on the same page. There is no way I'd ever install
Windows 10, and I take every possible step to foil telemetry. I take my
own precautions - and my chances, sure - against the threats that are
out there, and not signing up for accounts with monopolies who may claim
to protect me but in fact are out for my money and my freedom is one of
the measures I take. By the way, I do use Windows Defender, but recently
it's become impossible to update its database. Just overwork on the part
of Micro$oft, I'm sure.
Thanks for the suggestion about Process Explorer. I'll give that a try,
while hoping that Mr. Dawson will see this and make some suggestions of
his own.
