Setting up Dell pc - license queries

ih8stress

I'm in the process of setting up my new Dell desktop and have got to the license terms to use Windows.

Do I just agree to everything? It mentions things like Windows Update (if I use it) and on some things says that I can switch off some features if I want.

To be honest I don't really understand alot of it and there is alot to read through:eek:

Any advice please?

Just click yes, and agree to automatic updates. It's fine.

Thanks Poppy. My son thinks I am being parnoid (he's probably right:) but I don't like agreeing to things I don't understand fully.:T

Congratulations on your new PC , when you use your browser the first time don't forget to navigate to this address (this forum) and when you get there then go tools internet options ... use this page as set this page as home page.:D

That's generally a good attitude to have.

Thanks dcm. I know I'm being a numpty:o but I'm getting stuck on this whole setup malarky.
I don't know whether to select 'use recommended settings' which includes auto updates, driver updates, windows defender, IE smartscreen filter, online help and customer experience improvement program

or
'install important updates only'. without enhanced spyware protection, solutions to problems, driver updates and smartscreen filter.

(I think it's the collecting information and ceip things I'm most unsure about)
