Microsoft is set to launch its Recall feature for Windows 11, which captures screenshots of user actions for later retrieval. The feature had been delayed due to security concerns raised by researchers regarding potential vulnerabilities. Microsoft has since enhanced security measures, including making Recall an opt-in feature, implementing encryption for screenshots, and requiring authentication through Windows Hello. Recall will also integrate Microsoft’s Purview software to prevent the capture of sensitive information. Users can control what Recall captures, with options to exclude certain applications and disable the feature entirely. Microsoft conducted extensive security reviews to validate these measures, and Recall is a key feature of the Copilot+ PCs running the latest Windows 11 version.
