VS Code's FAQ tells you how to disable telemetry. https://code.visualstudio.com/Docs/supporting/FAQ (How to disable telementry reporting) VS itself doesn't have a nice setting like this, it looks like, and it's caused a fair bit of consternation on the Internet. Someone has posted a recipe for turning it off: https://gist.github.com/zeffy/f0fe4be391a2f1a4246d0482bbf57c1a I bet the var is not set at all by default. I actually ran into the telemetry issue over the weekend when I was without internet, working on a Windows VM with VS 2019, and a whole bunch of files accumulated in the temp directory, unsent data. Irritating. SCons will likely need to adapt to something here. Adding the path to powershell doesn't seem likely; it's pretty obscure and contains version-coding, which makes it a poor candidate - humans invoke it through a shortcut which hides those details, but that's not useful to SCons. > One solution to pass VSCMD_SKIP_SENDTELEMETRY to the scons environment is to > add ‘VSCMD_SKIP_SENDTELEMETRY’ to the vs_vc_vars list: this one sounds fairly good to me...
