#windows 11 recall

Microsoft is giving its AI-powered Recall feature another shot, this time with some much-needed security fixes. Originally hyped as one of the standout tools for Copilot+ PCs, Recall quickly ran into major security risks. The feature, which takes regular screenshots to help users “recall” past activity, was pulled after security researchers found that it stored sensitive data in an unencrypted SQLite database. Now, Microsoft says it’s fixed those issues and is reintroducing Recall in a new preview build (26100.3902) for Windows Insiders. Microsoft originally planned to launch Recall alongside Copilot+ hardware back in June 2024. After backlash from security researchers and privacy advocates, the company delayed it first to October, then indefinitely citing the need to deliver a “secure and trusted experience.” Outside of Recall, the new build also adds other Copilot+ features. And if you’re using Windows Share, there’s now a built-in editor for quick changes like cropping or filtering images before you send them. I've had the beta version of Windows 7 installed on my Intel Core 2 Quad, a Compaq Presario, and an Atom-based netbook for about a week now and so far, Microsoft's upcoming operating system gave a fairly good impression.
