Quote:How to check if Activity History is enabled

The first thing you have to do is to check if Activity History is enabled on your device. To do this, log in to Windows 10 and then navigate to the following location:
Code:
Settings > Privacy > Activity history

In this screen, there are two options that must be disabled, as it follows:
Code:
Store my activity history on this device
Send my activity history to Microsoft

Make sure that both of them are disabled. Additionally, you need to turn off activity history for each account on your system in the section called:
Code:
Show activities from these accounts

Just click the toggle next to each account to set it off and that’s pretty much all about it.
