The best solution for privacy is to not use windows, seems like a good guide but even with all these modifications I would throw the computer in the dumpster and set it on fire before using it in any privacy sensitive or mission critical applications.
Linux runs fine these days, and with NTSync in the kernel and the work done on WINE and proton there really isn't a need to use an operating system that abuses you and sells your data for profit.
This is for people needing MSOffice, Adobe, AutoCAD and whatelse. This does not run in WINE, on purpose.
Just stop. Your comment does not help anyone.
Oh, works on my machine. Oh well.
