Microsoft to Reintroduce Controversial Recall Feature with Enhanced Security

The AI-powered tool for Windows 11 will be opt-in and fully removable, addressing previous privacy concerns.

Recall will launch on Copilot+ PCs in November, after a period of testing in October.
The feature will be strictly opt-in, not enabled by default, and can be entirely uninstalled.
Microsoft has implemented robust security measures, including full encryption and storage in a secure VBS Enclave.
Windows Hello authentication will be required to access Recall, ensuring only authorized users can view data.
Recall will exclude sensitive information like passwords and credit card numbers from screenshots, and users can opt out specific apps or websites.
