Disclaimer

1 Website Disclaimer

oo-shutup10.com is an independent, fan-made informational website dedicated to helping Windows users discover, download, and set up O&O ShutUp10++ – a free privacy tool for Windows 10 and Windows 11. This website is not a software vendor, distributor, or developer. We are simply a community resource that documents and explains what the software does, how to use it, and where to get it safely.

The information published on this website is provided in good faith and for general informational purposes only. While we do our best to keep all content accurate and up to date, we make no representations or warranties of any kind – express or implied – about the completeness, accuracy, reliability, suitability, or availability of any information, links, or related graphics on this site for any purpose. Any reliance you place on such information is therefore strictly at your own risk.

2 Download & File Hosting Disclaimer

oo-shutup10.com generally does not host any software files on its own servers. Download links provided on this website point directly to the official O&O Software download servers – specifically dl5.oo-software.com, which is operated and maintained by O&O Software GmbH themselves. We have made no modifications whatsoever to the original files.

When you click a download link on this website, you are downloading software directly from O&O Software GmbH’s own infrastructure. We do not intercept, repackage, bundle, or modify the download in any way. What you receive is exactly what O&O Software GmbH publishes.

We strongly encourage all users to verify file integrity after downloading. The official MD5 checksum for the current 64-bit version (v2.2.1024) is 08fdce16c9c77b238045a2101ee31e13. You can verify this using any standard MD5 checksum tool before running the executable.

3 No Warranty / “As Is” Disclaimer

All information, guides, instructions, and recommendations on oo-shutup10.com are provided on an “as is” basis, without any warranty of any kind – either expressed or implied. This includes, but is not limited to, implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.

O&O ShutUp10++ modifies Windows registry entries and Group Policy settings. While the software is widely regarded as safe and all changes are reversible, we cannot guarantee that specific configurations will work identically on every hardware and software combination. System behavior can vary depending on your version of Windows, installed software, hardware configuration, and active enterprise policies.

We make no warranty that our guides or tutorials are error-free, complete, or current. Windows updates may change behavior, and we may not always have the latest information immediately.

4 Limitation of Liability

Use of O&O ShutUp10++ and any related software is entirely at your own risk. oo-shutup10.com, its authors, contributors, and operators shall not be held liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising from the use or inability to use this website, the software described herein, or the information provided – even if advised of the possibility of such damages.

This includes, without limitation:

• Data loss or corruption resulting from applying privacy settings
• System instability or software incompatibilities after toggling Windows settings
• Windows features that stop functioning as expected after modifications
• Any security or privacy outcomes resulting from your personal configuration choices
• Loss of business, revenue, or productivity

Before making any system changes with O&O ShutUp10++, we recommend creating a System Restore Point (the software itself prompts you to do this) and, for critical systems, a full system backup.
