how to disable CEIP from command line

I have not installed (or will install) the rollups. I also haven't installed any of the KBs listed here that where offered. I don't have either of those DataCollection branches listed. Should I create them? I have ceip turned off so does it even matter?

To the OP, here are all the ways to disable CEIP including a registry entry.Turn off the Windows Customer Experience program - gHacks Tech News If you are looking to do this on a large number of computers you can export the registry and then import it on the other computers.

If you create them and they do nothing then there's no harm. If you are concerned about data collection you would need to monitor and log all ip addresses that your machine communicates with over an extended period. Personally i do daily checks and inspect logs weekly.

on github there is a utility called aegis-voat that automates and number of sets.

For CEIP:

Code:

echo * disable ceip ... %log%
set key=hkey_local_machine\software\microsoft\sqmclient\windows
reg add "%key%" /f /t reg_dword /v ceipenable /d 0 %logs%
echo. %log%

There's no need to run that. In any case that is only part of the script that runs if you launch the CMD script.

You could just use this:

CEIP.reg

File content:

Code:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\SQMClient\Windows]
"CEIPEnable"=dword:00000000

fwiw, here is a link to the github page

GitHub - CodeMason/aegis-voat: Aegis for Windows 7/8.x - Block all known Microsoft spying and Windows 10 upgrade elements

of note:

aegis.cmd
README.md

That is exactly where I looked when I read your earlier post. It's part of a command script. You can just merge the reg file to replicate the part of the script that you posted.

You posted the above which if run as part of that long command script would create the registry entry I posted. You don't need to download and merge the reg file - just do it your way if that's what you prefer. :)

Because it doesn't involve running a command script? It's like saying why would you choose copy/ paste from right click menu when you could just use CRTL+C CTRL+V shortcuts. Well if you don't like one way you can do it the other way but there's no point in asking why. It's just personal preference.
