[Bug 47847] New: Disable Windows 10's "privacy wizard" after locale change
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47847 Bug ID: 47847 Summary: Disable Windows 10's "privacy wizard" after locale change Product: Wine-Testbot Version: unspecified Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: fgouget(a)codeweavers.com Distribution: --- The TestBot can automatically set up locale-specific live snapshots (after the locale has been manually installed, see point 1 of bug 47804). However on Windows 10 the mandatory reboot is sometimes followed by a wizard asking a bunch of questions like whether to use audio speech recognition, what kind of reports to send Microsoft, etc. I think this is the "Choose your Privacy Settings" wizard. Of course that breaks the snapshot creation since the TestBot cannot answer these questions, fails to detect they are even being asked (because TestAgentd is already running in the background), and creates a snapshot of the half-baked state. So one question is: how can one prevent Windows from putting up this wizard? But then, while I had this wizard for the French locale, I did not get it for Arabic. Would it perchance only happen for European locales? If so the pain may be bearable. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47847 --- Comment #1 from François Gouget <fgouget(a)codeweavers.com> --- The "privacy wizard" is shown on the next boot after changing the country to a European country: * It gets shown after the country is set to DE, ES, FR, IS, NO, PL. * But not after setting it to CN, EG, IL, IN, JP, US. So a workaround would be to relocate any European locale to a non-European country. Care must be taken to ensure this will not have an impact on the language though, like Canadian French instead of regular French. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47847 --- Comment #3 from François Gouget <fgouget(a)codeweavers.com> --- Having to use AutoHotKey would really be annoying: * It would mean uploading / installing AutoHotKey on the test VMs. I normally avoid anything that could be bringing in dependencies that modify the test environment. * It would mean uploading the AutoHotKey script too. * And arranging to AutHotKey to start on boot, before the session is fully started. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

It seems that if one does not provide a "Microsoft account" when installing Windows, Windows asks again a few days / reboots later and in this case it just happened while creating some of the locale snapshots live snapshots. If it was indeed related to the locale it's also possible that the Microsoft policy changed since we now create these snapshots from Windows 10 2004. Either way I'm closing this bug. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
