how to disable CEIP from command line

[TomF]

CEIP can be disabled through the control panel:
>> Sys & Sec
>> ActionCenter
>> Change ActionCenter settings
>> Related Settings
>> Cust Exo Impro Prog settings
>> no i do not want to

And similar clicks drilling down through Task Scheduler.

Details here:
Beware: Windows 7 Convenience Rollup adds telemetry

How can these actions be achieved on the command line?

Hi,
I don't know but you can also just type this into the start menu search box
Change Customer Experience Improvement Program settings

Callenders post on disable CEIP
Whatever happened to that promised Windows 7 convenience rollup?

Thanks for Callenders link and checking infos right now, though i cannot rep him. This has to be made after installed convenience rollup....

 

[Callender]

Also check here:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DataCollection

Create a new DWORD (32-Bit), name it AllowTelemetry and give it a value of 0. If the key does not exist, you will have to create it.

Thanks i've checked the key DataCollection, it even doesn't exist on my system. Dunno if i should create it since task manager tips.

 

[Callender]

If that key doesn't exist on your machine it probably will do soon.

Personally I have gone even further and remapped routing table for MS telemetry collection ip's. Currently I see no telemetry being sent.

 

[Callender]

I just noticed that I also have this:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\DataCollection]
"AllowTelemetry"=dword:00000000
"DisableEnterpriseAuthProxy"=dword:00000001

There is also this:
How to stop Microsoft from gathering telemetry data from Windows 7, 8, and 8.1 - Super User

Is there no way to script these changes?

 

[Callender]

If you must try then read post #27 and the following posts here:

Static Routes - Create or Remove

Note: It is wise to make a a system image backup before making these types of changes.

Also I've added 23.99.160.139 to the list on my own machine.

You are probably wasting your time unless you are prepared to constantly monitor all connections and investigate them.

I know...i have hidden this preview one...but sure it will install soon, thanks for your tips!

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:

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%

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:

View attachment CEIP.reg​

File content:

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

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.

[TomF]

Why would one want to do that?

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.

 

[TomF]

Why might one want to do it your way instead?

 

[Callender]

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.
