Blackbird V6 is a tool for optimizing privacy, security and performance settings on Windows systems. It is a portable, restorable, flexible program with a focus on leaving the smallest possible footprint and the ability to rollback changes.
It blocks telemetry completely, prevent Windows spyware, on both the application and network level, without editing the HOSTS file in any way nor does it mess with user firewall settings. It removes all Windows telemetry updates, Windows Ads and all Windows built-in advertising and any preinstalled app user want. A user can stop a PC from downloading and installing sponsored software in the background. Furthermore, the application restores privacy, prevent diagnostic data, passwords, contacts, URL, SMS, handwriting, location, and P2P-update sharing. It removes unique ad-ID tracking token and built-in advertising.
Blackbird does not run in the background, instead of relying on persistent routes and resolving hostnames to IP addresses each time Blackbird is applied by the user. After usage no new files are left behind on computer and user can safely delete blackbird.exe. Blackbird has succeeded when user forget it was ever there. Everything software can be restored using the software itself or manually.

What is new in version 1.0.78 (Released on July 27, 2019):
- Fixed a major, long-standing bug, where Blackbird failed to obtain proper service states on some system localizations;
- Fixed /I switch not enabling all device options on some Windows 10 versions (Add Printer should now work correctly);
- Fixed /G switch not executing properly from the console and incorrect success/fail messages after usage;
- Fixed "invalid key name" errors shown in some cases when creating a backup file;
- Fixed "line too long" errors sometimes appearing during a full system scan.
- Added /G switch: Disable/enable Games Explorer (gameux.dll; injects into games at startup and connects to MS servers);
- Added an update to blacklist: KB4493132 (Windows 7 end-of-support nagware);
- Added more hosts to blacklist;
- Disabled additional Nvidia telemetry tasks and registry keys;
- Disabled scheduled tasks: Metadata Refresh, Notify1/Notify2 (Win7 end-of-support);
- Fixed username not getting defined in some rare cases, resulting in a fatal error;
- Fixed the weird file-deletion bug for reals this time;
- Boring Tech Details(tm): In some rare cases an undefined variable caused Blackbird to delete, apparently randomly-selected, contents of the root drive instead of removing temporary Blackbird files.
- Full Windows 10 v1903 support (April 2019 update) *
- Added new hosts to blacklist
- Added some old KB updates to blacklist; KB2876229, KB3074677, KB3081954
- Disabled scheduled tasks; HypervisorFlightingTask, USO_RebootDisplay, USO_WnfDisplay, USO_UxBroker_WnfDisplay, WiFiTask
- Disabled services; AarSvc, CredentialEnrollmentManagerUserSvc, DeviceAssociationBrokerSvc, DeviceAssociationService, InstallService, PushToInstall, WcncSvc, WinRM, XboxGipSvc
- Disabled additional SubscribedContent, BITS peer/server-caching, and IE-CEIP registry keys.
- App Manager can now block multiple apps by range (entering 1-10 blocks apps from 1 to 10.)
- The /I switch now also enables Device Settings, Focus/Assist and user notifications on Windows 10.
- The /X switch now also enables/disables the Windows Live ID service (wlidsvc).
- Improved STD reliability when disabling or removing tasks.
- An attempt to fix a weird recursion bug that can cause read/write permission conflicts resulting in partitions disappearing for some users.
- Fixed "reg key not found" errors appearing in the main menu under some conditions.
- * NOTE: With Windows 10 v1903 MS has upped their game a bit, as expected. Consequently we had to resort to using more "blackhat-ish" methods to bypass it all. Expect AV software to not like this version. Will deal with it if it becomes too much of a problem.
- Fixed boot problems caused by disabling UPFC.exe on older versions of Windows 10;
- Fixed Xbox services not properly enabled when using the /X switch;
- Fixed some services not getting turned back on when using Blackbird's Recovery mode to restore default settings.
- Added /Color switch - Alternative color scheme for my color-blind folk. Changes green to blue, red to yellow;
- Host blocker now attempts to use ICMP pings to grab IP addresses if DNS resolving fails;
- Date/time stamps are now ISO 8601 compliant;
- Disabled removable drive indexing;
- Disabled UPFC.exe running in the background on Windows 10;
- Fixed a stubborn service dependency bug that caused network connectivity problems to sometimes still be present after using the /L switch;
- Fixed Blackbird pausing if a fatal error is encountered even when using silent/script mode (/S switch);
- Fixed /ShowHost switch displaying and counting the same blocked address if multiple network interfaces are active;
- Fixed /ASLR and /NoUpdate switches not working correctly in some cases;
- Fixed services sometimes reported as 'Not secure' when they should not;
- Fixed crashing when the local username contained various special characters (hopefully);
- Fixed progress bar acting weird when using an external HOSTS.TXT file with 400+ listed addresses;
- Fixed registry key values not getting properly backed up if they contain empty spaces;
- Fixed various errors and alerts when creating/restoring a backup file (something,something,hex-code parsing,nerd-stuff,etc.);
- Small UI tweaks, more code optimizing because maximum effort.
- Improved OS version detection (Boring tech details: Now reads the OS version as a numeral 'value' instead of a 'string', which was admittedly dumb in the first place. This should prevent any weird compatibility issues popping up in the future when running Blackbird on newer/updated or unsupported Windows versions);
- Added new switch /ShowHost - displays all active host blocks set by Blackbird (IPv4/IPv6 addresses);
- Added new hosts to blacklist;
- Disabled more services; DiagSvc, LxpSvc, ShpamSvc, SmsRouter, WaaSMedicSvc, WerCplSupport, WiSvc, WlidSvc;
- Disabled more scheduled tasks; Notifications (Location Activity), NvTmMon/NvTmRep (Nvidia), RefreshCache (OneSettings), Installation/ReconcileLanguageResources (LanguageComponents), PerformRemediation;
- Disabled 'Timeline' user activity publishing/tracking/uploading;

- Disabled more services; BcastDVRUserService, BluetoothUserService, CaptureService, cbdhsvc, ConsentUxUserSvc, DevicePickerUserSvc, PrintWorkflowUserSvc;
- Disabled more scheduled tasks; Schedule Scan Static Task, USO_UxBroker;
- Disabled Clipboard history & cross-device l?ogging;
- Disabled Edge silent background startup;
- Disabled SmartScreen startup app control;
- Disabled all "AI Insights/SwiftKey" keylogging-text-prediction bullshit;
- Fixed unresponsive W-key option (enable/disable Task View) when selected in the main menu;
