Persistent error in 1803 - devicecensus.exe

Since installing 1803 I have this persistent error every day and I wonder what's it all about

 

Do you have Eset installed?

Try to set feedback to "Never" in the settings, reboot your computer.

 

@Krusty: No ESET here. Thanks for the link. There doesn't seem to be an answer there, or I don't know how to see it.
@Rules: Thanks. I'll try that, but any idea what it has to do with feedback?

 

Just checked. In Diagnosis and Feedback there are options Basic and Full. No option to turn it off. Mine is set to Basic.

 

It seems related to telemetry, and you should disable "device information" in scheduled tasks.

Thanks Stapp. Found it, and it's still at fault after reboot.

 

Ok. Thanks. I'll probably do it later on today. But that's a funny thing to do where it seems to me it's some sort of M$ bug. Will see tomorrow.

 

i forget to mention that the never feedback is not possible with consumer versions of windows 10.
this should did the trick : https://winaero.com/blog/locked-diagnostic-feedback-frequency-windows-10-version-1803/

rules.

 

That worked. I disabled the task and the error is gone for the past 3 days
BTW I use Windows 10 pro - 1803 at this time. And the "Never" feedback was way down at the bottom, but it didn't help me.

 

This is not the same option and does nothing similar as the "Diagnostic Data" option that is on top of that page and that is the crux of all users of non-enterprise/education-versions.

 

It's good to know

 

act8192 is a she

 

Nice.

 

But it isn't the same never option they were referring to.

 

Thank you. Good link.
I'm currently on 1809. Something enabled the device task which I disabled previously. It runs daily. I haven't seen any errors in a loooong time. Just the M$ never ending snooping.
