Package: tis-disable-telemetry

Valentin Ficis · November 19, 2020 - 1:09 PM

Hello,

as mentioned in my signature, I'm using WAPT Starter.

I'm currently installing the update, which includes Disable Telemetry 10.2-2, and the following question comes to mind:
How can I find out what changes are included in this version, and where can I find the release notes for this type of package?

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

Currently, our Git repository for packages is not public, and I unfortunately cannot confirm when it will be.
The only way to access them at present is to compare the package code.
The history is available on our Store: https://store.wapt.fr/store/tis-disable-telemetry

In this instance, I have improved the auditing function so that the package is reapplied after a Windows upgrade, which tends to reactivate telemetry. (Auditing function available only in the Enterprise version)

Sincerely,
Jimmy

Hello and thank you for this answer, I wasn't expecting much more!

From what I understand, the link provided allows you to download the code (binaries?) to compare the current version with an older one. This is a useful feature, but since I'm not a developer, I wouldn't know how to use it.

The rest of your message indicates what I wanted, namely:

Improved auditing functionality so that the package reapplies after a Windows update, which tends to reactivate telemetry. (Auditing functionality available only in the Enterprise edition)

I understand that if we are using WAPT Starter (Community version, if I understand correctly), a system update may have reactivated telemetry. Do you recommend uninstalling and reinstalling this package after each system update if using WAPT Starter?

Would it be possible to add your sentence in the space provided for this purpose at the end of the link you sent me?

Namely:
https://store.wapt.fr/store/details-tis ... #changelog

Finally, Would it then be possible to add the following link to the package description?

Release notes (read online)

As you might have guessed, I was more on a request for information than verification possibility (although I think the latter is greatly appreciated).

See you later!
