Microsoft confirms that Windows 11 Recall AI is not optional

Windows senior product manager Brandon LeBlanc says, "This will be fixed in an upcoming update."

However, past regulations have forced it to compromise on this question before it could uninstall Microsoft Edge in European Economic Area (EEA) countries. Microsoft’s comments indicate that Recall will roll out to Copilot+ enabled PCs starting next month for Windows Insiders, as planned. The privacy concerns of both Recall and Screenray Copilot features combined are severe, so hopefully, Microsoft will make it easy for end users to disable or remove these functions securely.
