    JUST TO BE CLEAR this "Recall" should NEVER have been added in the first place in ANY form "opt in" or "opt out" or otherwise!Yet I am not sure what shocks me more. Microsoft blatantly lying about the opt in nature of recall...Or that they somehow thought they could get away with it??? I only now found about this...Recall is not only active by default, but we can only hope to find out via random sources???No statement or anything by Microsoft... No message or button to click or alert!Just snuck in the latest AUTOMATED PATCH!This pretty much breaks half the EU General Data Protection Regulation

    Is it possible to just not have Recall on my computer

    Retrace your steps with Recall - Microsoft Support

    System requirements for Recall

    Your PC needs the following minimum system requirements for Recall:

    • A Copilot+ PC
    • 16 GB RAM
    • 8 logical processors
    • 256 GB storage capacity
    • To enable Recall, you’ll need at least 50 GB of storage space free
    • Saving screenshots automatically pauses once the device has less than 25 GB of storage space

    Shop Copilot+ PCs | Microsoft

    Are the Copilot+ PC experiences available on all Windows 11 PCs?

    These features require powerful neural processing units (NPUs)—a specialized computer chip for AI-intensive processes—that are unique to the Copilot+ PC class of devices.

    If your PC isn't one of these with an NPU on the Snapdragon® X Series processor, it simply won't run Recall or any of these other Copilot+ PC features, so you don't even have the option to ruse these.

    Guess you're badly behind the times for true AI computing, eh?

    Edge Search Does Not Permit Change of Region

    2. Select Settings and click on Choose what to clear.
    3. Check the boxes Browsing history, Cookies and saved website data and Cached data and files and click on Clear.

    3. Select add someone else on this PC.
    4. Enter a user name and hit next.
