Disabling Windows Compatability Telemetry

I've seen this wrong answer lots of places.   Typing gpedit.msc gives the error "Windows cannot find 'gpedit.msc'" and so fails

Try this solution :  https://thewindowscentral.com/microsoft-compatibility-telemetry/

It doesn't work for my version of Windows 10, as there is no gpedit.msc, as a number of other people have already commented in this thread.  It is enduringly frustrating to keep being told how simple the solution is when it isn't available to at least some.  If you can find a solution that works in all cases, then I'm all ears, or eyes, for forum posts.

Instead, you might want to check this link:  How to stop the Windows Compatability Telemetry (CompatTelRunner.exe)...

In it, someone kindly reports how to disable it via the Task Scheduler, and there appears to be a fairly high reported success rate, relative to the "I have the same problem" count.

Another user suggests disabling the Microsoft Experience too, but if it is registering my pain and frustration at Microsoft HQ, then I'm all for keeping it.
