Great for blocking Windows telemetry.

But if you are using Simplewall, you don't even need it, Simplewall already uses Windows Spy Blocker.

The Complete Suite of Programs Needed After New Windows Installation [V2.0: Advanced]

After a fresh Windows installation, new users might get frustrated by the weakness of the default Microsoft apps. So, in this list I'm going to cover applications that will enhance the user experience for everyday tasks. And for that, I only picked programs that meet these criteria: • Should be free (not commercial), safe and preferably open-source. • Should be an offline native desktop app/client. • Does not require advanced technical knowledge. Thus, the list is tailored to non tech-savvy home users, however, a section for people who are into computer programming and IT will be also added, which includes basic and commonly-used development and coding tools.
