Microsoft has been widely criticized for using users’ personal information to advertise, but in Windows 10 they themselves have been criticized. For example, Windows 10 users are forced to give permission for certain data collection, then there are complaints about PC scan, unique user ID collection, etc. Microsoft, however, says in its explanation of the allegations that it collects some data only for the benefit of its users so that their products are more user friendly. For example, a personal assistant app, Cortana, requires some data to work well.

Microsoft further guarantees that they do not scan Outlook email inboxes to advertise like Gmail.
