Anti-Spy 2

AntiSpy 2 reveals what data Windows collects in the background — and gives you back control over it.

Windows collects more than most people realize. Telemetry, advertising ID, activity history, speech recognition, AI functions like Copilot and Recall — much of it is active by default, and the switches for it are scattered across countless menus. AntiSpy 2 brings them together in one place.

The software checks your system and shows for each setting whether it is already protected or not. You decide what to switch off — with a click, sorted by topic: Privacy, Advertising, AI & Recall, Microsoft Edge, System and Taskbar.

Nothing happens without your involvement. AntiSpy 2 only makes changes when you click "Apply". If desired, the software creates a Windows restore point beforehand, and every single measure can be undone at any time.

So it stays off. Windows resets some settings during an update. AntiSpy 2's background protection therefore checks daily whether your applied measures are still active — and notifies you if Windows has changed anything.

A transparent protection report shows you at any time which data collectors are still active and what has already been dealt with.

AntiSpy 2 is software from a German manufacturer. It does not collect any personal data itself; anonymous usage statistics are switched off by default and only active with your express consent.

For Windows 10 and 11 (64-bit, incl. ARM64).
