they wont care that your using emulators and Microsoft can easily find what you do if they really want to know lol

Microsoft's spying tactics can shove it.

Erm...I know I can't say the following without it possibly sounding condescending, but lemme first state that I don't mean it as such (I mainly use windows myself)

Use linux instead.


Sorry that it isn't the answer you want, but @Raylight is right: if microsoft really wants to know what the hell you do, they've got plenty of ways to obtain it. Some of these can be turned off, but even then you've signed* an agreement with MS that they may gather some data of you.

...

Okay, permanently shutting your computer off from the internet will also work, but that's not really a practical solution nowadays.


*by 'signed' I mean you clicked a 'I agree' box during installation on a wall of text nobody ever reads

I like windows plays more games and programs I want. You just have to add a bunch of software thou.
