Microsoft enabled the notorious "Recall" with the last update (for Windows 11 copilot+ enabled pcs only). It's part of the OS and can't be uninstalled. This software stores metadata about EVERYTHING that appears on your screen, including passwords/urls/images/videos/any messages you send or emails etc

To disable this gross spyware, run the following as admin on the command line:

Dism /Online /Disable-Feature
/Featurename:Recall

#Windows #Spyware #Recall #PrivacyAbuse

@ciaranmak Hopefully O&O ShutUp10++ adds support to disable it as well. Not that I use Windows that often or do anything worth securing there, but I don't want this just out of principle.

Edit: First point on their feature list is "Disable Windows Copilot+ Recall"
