Same here. This happened to me after the last update. I had to go through and turn everything off all over again.

+1 Yeah, it's a known thing with major updates; you might want to check your diagnostic data settings too, as those often flip back.

Agreed, and it's a good idea to run the privacy dashboard after an update to catch anything else that changed.

Can confirm. Yeah, and double-check your app permissions in Settings > Privacy & security too, since those sometimes slip through.

+1 Agreed. It's also a good idea to run the Privacy Dashboard after a major update to catch anything else that might have reset.

Yeah, and it's worth double-checking those settings again after a few days, as some can revert during post-update background tasks.

This. Also, run the privacy troubleshooter in Settings > System > Troubleshoot—it sometimes catches things we miss.

This. I had the same problem after the last update. It felt like starting from scratch with all those app permissions. Hope that helps.

+1 You could also try running the privacy troubleshooter in Settings under System > Troubleshoot. Another option is to create a local account, as some report that helps the settings stick. Let me know if that works.

Yeah, that's a common headache after an upgrade. A quick extra tip: double-check those settings again after the next cumulative update, just in case.
