sends to Microsoft anonymous information about your hardware and how you
use this software. The Help Experience Improvement Program (HEIP) automatically
sends to Microsoft information about the version of Windows that your PC device
is running and about how you use Windows Help and Support, including queries
you enter when you search Windows Help and Support and any ratings or
feedback on the Help topics presented to you. Windows Error Reporting
automatically sends reports to Microsoft that describes which software
components had errors. These reports may include memory dumps. From
time-to-time, Microsoft will also download a small file to your device that permits
them to collect information about specific errors you have while using the
software. The data collected by these features helps Microsoft improve their
software.
e. IPv6 Network Address Translation (NAT) Traversal service (Teredo). Each time you
start your licensed device, Teredo will attempt to locate a public Internet Protocol
version 6 (IPv6) service on the Internet. This occurs automatically when your
licensed device is connected to a public or private network, but does not occur on
managed networks such as enterprise domains. If you use a program that requires
Teredo to use IPv6 connectivity, or if you configure your firewall to always enable
IPv6 connectivity, then Teredo will periodically contact the Microsoft Teredo
service over the Internet. The only information sent to Microsoft is standard
computer information and the name of the service requested (for example
teredo.ipv6.microsoft.com). The information sent from your device by Teredo is
used to determine if your device is connected to the Internet and if it can locate a
public IPv6 service. Once the service is located, information is sent to maintain a
connection with the IPv6 service.
f. Malicious Software Removal. The software may periodically scan for and remove
malware from your device, using the malicious software removal tool most
recently downloaded to your device. After the scan completes and at regular
intervals, a report will be sent to Microsoft with specific information about
malware detected, errors, and other information about your device. This
information is used to help protect your device from malicious software, as well as
to improve the software and other Microsoft products. You may disable the
software’s reporting functionality by following the instructions found at
go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=241725.
g. Network Awareness. This feature determines whether a system is connected to a
network by either passive monitoring of network traffic or active DNS or HTTP
queries. The query only transfers standard TCP/IP or DNS information for routing
purposes. You can switch off the active query feature through a registry setting.
h. Plug and Play and Plug and Play Extensions. Your device may not have the drivers
