Can confirm that Recall data is indeed stored in a SQLite3 database. The folder it's in is fully accessible only by SYSTEM and the Administrators group. Attempting to access it as a normal user yields the usual "You don't currently have permission" error. Here's how the database is laid out for those curious, figured you might appreciate a few screenshots.

I was able to get Recall working on this bad boy 😎
Snapdragon 7c+ Gen3, 3.4 GB of RAM, no NPU in sight

Will cook up a tutorial soon, it's surprisingly good even on something this low spec 😊 If you have any questions I'll do my best to answer them ✍️

Text in this preview build suggests that the "AI Explorer" umbrella term may not be used publicly after all. ✨😮 The page for tweaking privacy settings of the new AI smarts is simply called "Recall and snapshots." Guess they want to highlight individual features instead.🤔

Another piece of new-ish functionality in Settings is the ability to ask Copilot ✨ for help in case the inbox database has no result for your query 🔍

In case you don't have the option yet and would like to use it, enable feature ID 49445394

It's time for the Start menu to become extensible! ✨
Windows 11 β build 26212 quietly introduces support for "Start Menu Companions." They're apps that provide Adaptive Cards which display on a floating island (docked ⬅️ or ➡️) alongside Start.
Used Widgets data as a quick demo 😊
