How to disable Windows Recall

Recall relies on snapshots and is, for now, only on Copilot+PC devices (basically all new Surface devices with a Copilot button on the keyboard)

Recall takes snapshots every five seconds if the screen content is changed, the snapshot are then saved to a local file which is protecded by Bitlocker encryption and is not accessable to other users on the device.

Recall can be disabled by creating a new GPO :

User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > WindowsAI > Turn off saving snapshots for Windows

The CSP for Recall:

./User/Vendor/MSFT/Policy/Config/WindowsAI/DisableAIDataAnalysis

Go 4 it ! 😊
