At that time, Microsoft touted Recall as one of the best use cases of AI on Windows 11, but security researchers noted that Recall is a privacy nightmare that captures your passwords and stores them in plain text. Microsoft pulled back Recall AI and promised to address the privacy and security concerns by testing it with Windows Insiders. Microsoft has confirmed that Windows Recall is rolling out to everyone with Windows 11 KB5055627 on Copilot+ PCs. For example, if you were working on a PowerPoint presentation on financial operations, but you don't remember the name of the .ppt, you can use everyday language to describe the file, and Recall will find it for you. After nearly one year of delay, Recall is now included in Windows 11 Build 26100 for PCs with Snapdragon Copilot+ PCs. Recall was originally announced in May 2024 as the flagship feature of Windows 11 and Snapdragon-powered "AI" PCs. Recall is an AI-powered feature that captures your screen, so you can quickly find and jump back into what you have seen before on your PC. The company also made Recall completely optional and upgraded the model to filter out passwords or other sensitive information. Recall is able to find a photo, link, or message because it sees everything you can see on the screen. As Microsoft describes, you can use Recall to "recall" the moment you saw on your PC.
