This comment made me feel unspeakably old. Like I was some demon from the infinite abyss of time.

Obligatory non-fanboy warning: I say this as someone who generally dislikes Microsoft’s contemporary software and avoids Windows on their personal computers.

It looks like users are prominently presented the option to disable Recall during the first launch.

Controls from the start

During setup of your new Copilot+ PC, and for each new user, you're informed about Recall and given the option to manage your Recall and snapshots preferences. If selected, Recall settings will open where you can stop saving snapshots, add filters, or further customize your experience before continuing to use Windows 11. If you continue with the default selections, saving snapshots will be turned on.

You'll see Recall pinned to the taskbar when you reach your desktop. You'll have a Recall snapshot icon on the system tray letting you know when Windows is saving snapshots.

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.

"It looks like users are prominently presented the option to disable Recall" at this point in time.

ftfy, my friend.

Good news is that it takes Microsoft eons to update a user experience. So this will probably be the experience for the next decade.

Thank you lol. It’s disheartening to see people up in arms (majority of MS related posts in the past week) spreading vague misinfo about a disableable feature when they are putting ads in the OS.

Just, priorities, people 🤦‍♀️

The ads in the OS are disableable as well. They just aren't off by default, and are labeled something like "software suggestions" in the settings app.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

valid information to know. i don’t think the ads can be turned off during the first boot setup process though, which is a key distinction here.
