Here is a free Windows 10 privacy tool that lets you disable telemetry, cloud clipboard, activity feed, OneDrive, error reporting, diagnostics, etc. It is called “Private Win10“. There are separate tools already available for each of these tasks, but this tool has the advantage that it lets you enable/disable all such privacy-related options from one place.

Apart from that, it also provides built-in Firewall where you can block some applications from accessing the internet, allow full access, create new rule, disable some rule, remove an application from Firewall list, etc. So, this Windows 10 privacy tool has multiple benefits. In the screenshot below, you can see its interface where it shows some privacy-related options that you can enable/disable with a click.

Note: It is free for private non-commercial use only. Also, you should have some restore point or some backup before using such types of tools. While using this tool, I faced an issue that my internet connection was not working for Chrome browser. So, I had to look carefully and then use its Firewall feature to allow full access to Chrome application. Therefore, you should be very careful before you try this or some other similar tools.
