What is DoNotSpy11?
DoNotSpy10 was released in 2015 after the release of Windows 10. The tool allowed you to quickly and efficiently adjust Windows settings related to privacy.
DoNotSpy11 is based on the work of DoNotSpy10. The interface is completely identical, so long-time app users won’t have to get used to it. The tool is optimized and easy to use.

DoNotSpy11 allows you to manage more than 150 privacy settings of Windows 11 and Windows 10 with just a few clicks.
For each customization, a description is available that provides additional information about the functionality it controls.
If the setting is checked by default, it is already applied. The color of the parameter serves as a safety indicator. Blue settings are safe to use, and red settings are not recommended for most users. The orange settings have an informational text explaining, and the gray settings highlight changes since the app was the last run.
The utility offers several functions for your convenience:
- Automatically check for updates
- Quickly undo all settings
- Using Windows System Restore
You can download DoNotSpy11 on our website. The first time you start it, you may see a SmartScreen warning. This is because the application is not yet signed.
