Differences between versions

Two branches are currently available for Microsoft PC Manager: China and Global.

  • The China branch has a faster release cycle and includes more localized features, but may not be suitable for privacy laws in other countries / regions (e.g.: General Data Protection Regulation, GDPR in the European Union).

  • The Global branch has better compliance with local laws, but at the cost of longer release cycles (due to strict compliance) and fewer new features.

TIP

If you use a country-specific branch version in a region other than where the branch was released (eg: use the China branch in the US), some features may not be available due to privacy issues related to sending feature telemetry data (For example: pop-up blocking)

But rest assured, both versions are SAFE and comply with the promises in the Microsoft Privacy Statement.
