Privacy: The Application Compatibility Program Inventory must be prevented from collecting data and sending the information to Microsoft
Some features may communicate with the vendor, sending system information or downloading data or components for the feature. Turning off this capability will prevent potentially sensitive information from being sent outside the enterprise and uncontrolled updates to the system. This setting will prevent the Program Inventory from collecting data about a system and sending the information to Microsoft.
To fix this configure the policy value for
Computer Configuration
|_ Administrative Templates
|_ Windows Components
|_ Application Compatibility
|_ Turn off Inventory Collector to "Enabled".
