> If your organization relies on Windows Update for updates, you shouldn’t use the Security level. Because no Windows Update information is gathered at this level, important information about update failures is not sent. Microsoft uses this information to fix the causes of those failures and improve the quality of our updates.
Note that they don't tell you which of the other levels enables Windows Update telemetry, which is apparently helpful.

- hendersoon 10y agoThat's simply not true. Telemetry is not required to update Windows. I've had it disabled for nearly 2 years now with Shutup10 and my OS updates just fine. That's just a single datapoint, but Shutup10 and other similar programs are very popular. If it broke updates people would be making noise about it.
