Ideal settings for Microsoft 365
=================================
there are few settings for Microsoft 365 that you can do to make it more usable or for privacy settings.
## Use old mail account wizard
The new mail account wizard will not work with the `@phys.ethz.ch` mail address. you can use the mail setting in the control panel described [here](mail/how_to_use_email_with_outlook).
## Set default save to location
Microsoft 365 will per default safe your files in the OneDrive. You can change that when you follow the instructions [here](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/customize-the-save-experience-in-office-786200a7-f5f2-4d26-a3ae-b78c60dd5d3b)
## Configure privacy settings
At the [Microsoft web page](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployoffice/privacy/manage-privacy-controls) can you find a lot of privacy settings and what the is the meaning from.
We recommend the following settings:
* [Policy setting for connected experiences that analyze your content](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployoffice/privacy/manage-privacy-controls/#policy-setting-for-connected-experiences-that-analyze-your-content) -> set to **Disabled**
* [Policy setting for diagnostic data](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/deployoffice/privacy/manage-privacy-controls/#policy-setting-for-diagnostic-data) -> set to **Neither**
To create a `.reg` file for the privacy settings, open Notepad and copy in the following lines. Adjust the values to suit your needs, and then save the file. Be sure the file name has an extension of `.reg`
```reg
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\office\16.0\common\privacy]
"usercontentdisabled"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\office\common\clienttelemetry]

```
After saving the file, you can just double click it to set the configuration
