After last week Microsoft reportedly started making Recall as an optional featurerecently they made another change by revealing that Recall will not be part of the Copilot+ device launch which will be available with the Snapdragon X Elite Chipset on June 18.
Today, we are communicating an additional update on the Recall (preview) feature for Copilot+ PCs. Recall will now shift from a preview experience broadly available for Copilot+ PCs on June 18, 2024, to a preview available first in the Windows Insider Program (WIP) in the coming weeks. Following receiving feedback on Recall from our Windows Insider Community, as we typically do, we plan to make Recall (preview) available for all Copilot+ PCs coming soon.
We are adjusting the release model for Recall to leverage the expertise of the Windows Insider community to ensure the experience meets our high standards for quality and security. This decision is rooted in our commitment to providing a trusted, secure and robust experience for all customers and to seek additional feedback prior to making the feature available to all Copilot+ PC users. Additionally, as we shared in our May 3 blog, security is our top priority at Microsoft, in line with our Secure Future Initiative (SFI). This is reflected in additional security protections we are providing for Recall content, including “just in time” decryption protected by Windows Hello Enhanced Sign-in Security (ESS), so Recall snapshots will only be decrypted and accessible when the user authenticates. The development of Copilot+ PCs, Recall and Windows will continue to be guided by SFI.
When Recall (preview) becomes available in the Windows Insider Program, we will publish a blog post with details on how to get the preview. To try Recall (preview) WIP customers will need a Copilot+ PC due to our hardware requirements. We look forward to hearing Windows Insider feedback.
So the Recall feature itself was first introduced at the same event when Microsoft introduced the Copilot+ device three weeks ago. This feature was originally called AI Explorer and rumors have been around for a long time on Insider for several months, but unfortunately this feature is quite controversial because many users are worried about their security and privacy issues, especially since there was news about Potential Threats to User Data Security and Privacy due to this Recall feature.
After receiving news of potential data security threats, last week they started making the Recall feature optional by providing the option to disable this feature during the OOBE / Out of box Experience process in Windows 11 Setup.
But it didn’t stop there, guys, because in the end they really withdrew the Recall feature because they felt that this feature wasn’t even ready yet public preview though.
So, even though the Recall feature is being withdrawn from the launch of Copilot+ devices on June 18 2024, Microsoft plans to start testing Recall for the first time as part of the Windows Insider Program in the coming weeks. Unfortunately, the release date is not explained in more detail, but perhaps the release of Recall will take quite some time until Microsoft is ready to re-announce Recall with improvements and better changes.
What do you think? Comment below guys. Btw what are the comments @eureka will this come true? we’ll see later guys.
