I spent 20 minutes reviewing my Windows 11 app permissions and changed 6 settings right after

I don't tend to think of myself as someone who ignores privacy settings, but when I actually sat down and spent 20 minutes or so going through Windows 11's app permissions, I found six things I should have changed a long time ago. None of these require any technical knowledge and is pretty straightforward to check on your own PC. Here's what I found, where each setting lives, and why it's worth the 20 minutes.
