Important note on Recall

Recall is a snapshot feature for Copilot+ PCs that remembers your work as you go, taking snapshots of applications and screens and remembering everything you've seen in case you forget where you saw it. Users can scrub on a timeline of the PC's recorded history, or search for keywords to find lost information or files. For safety, Recall can be disabled or paused for certain applications and programs, but likely not disabled completely as it's integrated into the OS on Copilot+ devices.

it can be disabled completely

You can turn on or off saving snapshots at any time by going to Settings > Privacy & security > Recall & snapshots. You can also pause snapshots temporarily by selecting the Recall icon in the system tray on your PC and selecting the pause option.

The feature only works if you have a Copilot+ CPU and right now, that is only the Snapdragon X Elite
If you have anything else it won't run at all.

There are lots of videos scaremongering about the 24H2 update and really its nothing to be concerned about if you have a current PC.
Lack of information leads people to assume the worst. Always happens when Windows announces anything. Same old responses come out of the woodwork.
