Microsoft Confirms Windows 11 Recall Feature

A bug falsely suggested users could uninstall the controversial AI tool, but Microsoft plans a fix and security enhancements.

  • Recall, an AI feature that takes constant screenshots, will remain integrated in Windows 11.
  • Users can disable but not fully remove Recall, which raised privacy and security concerns.
  • A bug in the latest update falsely indicated an uninstall option, which Microsoft will correct.
  • Recall's database will now be encrypted and require Windows Hello for authentication.
  • The feature's release was delayed to address security issues and is now set for October testing.
