Microsoft has confirmed that Windows 11 users will not be able to uninstall the controversial “Recall” feature, despite earlier reports suggesting otherwise. Recall, part of the Copilot+ suite announced in May, automatically captures screenshots of user activity on the operating system including sensitive information such as passwords or financial data https://digitalmarketreports.com/news/25091/microsoft-recall-feature-on-windows-11-not-removable-after-all/ Do yourself a favor and get rid of Windows from your life—enough of these greedy companies. #privacy #security
@[email protected] I found this part to be illuminating:
“Earlier reports by Deskmodder indicated that the latest Windows 11 update (24H2) might allow users to uninstall Recall entirely. However, Microsoft clarified to The Verge that this uninstall option was a bug.”
You see, it’s a feature, not a bug. But this feature turns Windows into a bug. So…

Do you all get the feeling that the uninstall options was there for Devs?
And someone forgot to remove it from their project till it shipped?
@[email protected] Pop-OS for the win! Woo!

@[email protected] who cares, ms-windows is the past…
@[email protected] How do you remove this crap?
Working anywhere they use Windows you have no choice.

@[email protected] Welp, time to make myself do the full swap to Ubuntu. Just gotta make sure Citrix works.
@[email protected] I haven’t had a windows pc in 20 years, but I have an Xbox. I do these daily searches & things for rewards points, often in bing or edge, & I really despise it every time. It’s always broken or failing in some way & it’s a benign, nothing of a task. I would die a slow painful death if I had to do anything like work or business on this OS!
@[email protected] I’m just presuming Winaero Tweaker will have a way to cripple it. I need to give that crew some money.
@[email protected] MSDOS must reborn! It was best from microsoft

This guy will probably include a Recall remover sooner or later. Winaero Tweaker so far does not seem to have one, but probably will too.
I’m just freezing my Windows partitions at Win 10 Pro and not letting them 11 themselves.
The problem is getting businesses off of Windows.
Treadmill inertia is hard to stop.
@[email protected] This is kind of deceptive language, no? It can be disabled. That’s functionally equivalent?
@[email protected] I feel this is something that should be on the news for those who arn’t technical and on all there social media in the true dystopian light it deserves.
