# Internet Communication settings `Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\System\Internet Communication Management\Internet Communication settings` These look quite old so I am not sure if they apply to modern Windows versions or not. It doesn't hurt to set them either ways - Turn off Windows Customer Experience mprovement Program -> Enabled - Turn off downloading of print drivers over HTTP -> Enabled Turn off printing over HTTP -> Enabled - Turn off Help and Support Center "Did you know?" content -> Enabled (These are probably not that useful and will just be annoying) - Turn off Windows Error Reporting -> Enabled - turn off Search Companion content file updates -> Enabled - Turn off Windows Messenger Customer Experience Improvement Program -> Enabled
