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

Thank you for the tip. I understand your message is now several months old, but did Microsoft disable Recall? When I try your suggested command, a message explains me that the feature is not found and advises me to look at the Dism log.
