    I don't know why Microsoft doesn't just make it easy. By default everything is turned off and you have two options. First, enable Cortana, which sends user data to Microsoft for targeted ads as well...

    For the people saying this is an insider build, the features will ideally roll out to production. That's the whole point of being a beta tester. I do understand the privacy concerns, which is why I...

    My actual concern was why doesn't game mode support non-store games, and we've kind of got off track.

    Not the same animal though. If this new feature only tunes for Windows Store games it probably is using that database. XBox is/was designed of Microsoft's primary game platform. I honestly think...

    This reads more like another sad attempt to get people to use the Store/Xbox when they already get their software directly from vendors, or in the case of PC games places like Steam or Origin.
