As Microsoft continues to dive further into AI, more features like Recall will continue being introduced but for users who may feel these features are becoming somewhat intrusive, you can disable them on your Windows 11.

The Recall feature shipped with a Windows 11 build which basically stands in for your forgetful memory. You may have searched for something but can’t remember it the next day. Recall does the work for you since it takes a snapshot of everything you do on your device and keeps a copy on your local drive.

It may be argued that the Recall feature may be infringing on your privacy. It takes a snapshot of everything on your screen except for protected content.

Your passwords and any other confidential information on the other hand can be captured and stored in your drive. This means anyone who can log into your user profile can easily access them. However, withdata protection software, you can rest assured your information is safe.

The Recall feature is already on Windows 11 devices. Would you say the snapshots are helpful or would you rather not have a visual diary of your device activity throughout the day? Let us know in the comment section below.
