About

RidoGuard is a desktop application for reviewing and changing Windows privacy, security and

performance settings from one place.

It covers telemetry and diagnostic data settings, Windows services, startup entries and scheduled

tasks, removal and restore of preinstalled Store apps, per-application firewall and network

permissions, a hosts file editor, and ready-made performance and convenience profiles. A hardening

scanner reports on Defender, Firewall, UAC, BitLocker and Secure Boot state, and the current

posture can be exported as a PDF report.

Every toggle carries a plain-English explanation of what it changes. Nothing is applied until a

change summary has been shown. Before applying, RidoGuard asks Windows for a restore point and

backs up the registry keys it touches. Applying a profile, removing preinstalled apps and changing

service profiles are written to an audit log and to the Windows Application event log, and can be

undone with the command line rollback. A command line mode is available for unattended use.

RidoGuard has no account and collects no telemetry or analytics. It checks GitHub for a newer

release when it starts. Any other network activity happens only when a feature that needs it is

used, such as installing an application through winget. It requires administrator rights to edit

system settings, services and firewall rules.

Builds are not code-signed yet, so Windows SmartScreen shows an unknown publisher warning on first

run.

Security
