To Disable Recall in 24H2(Removing it breaks explorer):
- Open Settings
- Select Privacy & security
- Choose Recall & snapshots
- Toggle off Recall
As luck would have it, Windows 11 is not mandatory ^^
Time to put Explorer.exe into Ghidra and patch the dependencies out
How do I stay on 23H2 forever ? Also, is recall also mandatory in Windows 11 LTSC (that just came out)
Interestingly I have 24H2 but I don't have an option for Recall & snapshots in the Privacy and security menu.
@@tgheretford Because unlike what he claims, Recall is only for Copilot+ PCs (and it isn't even out yet for those). Nobody else who already owns a machine running Windows will get Recall. The video is borderline FUD.
As a German and European citizen, I sincerely urge you to report this to the European Commission using the "Complaint Form for Breach of EU Law" (can't link here sadly). In August, the EU Council ruled that Microsoft must enable the complete uninstallation of Recall and Copilot due to privacy laws. Making these features mandatory, as you can demonstrate and prove, constitutes a violation of that ruling.
really just commenting so this gets more attention
commenting for recognition
This needs to be seen
This needs to be seen.
This needs to be seen
also, its time to move to Linux
So any serious Journalists investigating powerful people should probably stop using windows 11 immediately.
There should be an actual product recall until they at a minimum fix the documentation. Perhaps a full refund and no more support for the flawed (all recent, apparently) versions. Requiring them to provide instructions for installing Linux would be too much to ask for.
I never switched to windows 11
mossad will love this feature
No windows and no android phones.
why are you using windows in the first place for that
Anybody else sick of microsoft

yea 20 years ago, when I switched to linux for good.
Not me
People need to spread the word about this, because taking screenshots of someones pc is unacceptable
It should be illegal.
@@RaymondSwanson-u9y Technically it is but unenforceable.
Already on it. Unfortunately, so far, all I get is "Yeah, I'ma stick with Windows, anyway."
Doesn't apple and google do it with their cloud services. Not a screenshot but the picture sync. Google literally steals photos. I had logged out or disabled sync for the photos app but it gets turned on and gets synced anyways. These guys are thieves.
@@Phuckitall Tends to happen when there's no other alternatives that do everything Windows does.
I didn't believe them for a moment about Recall.
I don't even believe that the disable button will do anything at all.
@@minghaoliang4311yup.
Honestly they (CTT) should just give the option to fully Remove recall and then have to use the win10 explorer

They've changed eula last year and allowed themselves to put AI onto your system and work with your data. It was an obvious slippery slope - no matter what they said at the time, they'd stealthily make use of all the permissions they gave themselves sooner rather than later.
I didnt think anyone did. Evidently this guy did though.
Recall feels like malware
Because it is. Not just Recall but Windows 10 & 11 are by definition malware. Microsoft even brags about it in their marketing and are proud of how many data points they collect from Windows computers.
It is
*windows
it is LITERALLY spyware
Spyware but yeah
I am SOOOOO glad that I moved to Linux right before this Recall shit began. The best time to leave was two years ago, the second best time to leave is NOW!!!
The best time to leave was 10 years ago...just think how good you'd be at Linux by now!🤣🤣🤣

MOST peoples arguments are- "I need Adobe." Or - "My game doesn't run as good" And both are really terrible because it just says that most people don't want to learn something new or sacrifice an addiction for more freedom.
Indeed sir. I agree. I have already switched to Linux and I am happy with that decision. If enough people switch to Linux then the game publishers will have no choice but to publish for Linux users. That will provide incentive enough for the rest of the die hard gamers who can't live without Windows. We are bigger as a community than Microsoft, but we have to come together in order to defeat their monopoly.
I moved to Linux a couple of years ago and I'm very happy I did. I'm certainly no Linux evangelist - there's a lot of things that could be better for the average PC user, and I think it's important to focus on that, BUT it's a far better alternative than Windows.
@@VioFaxi got lucky man. All the games i like are pretty old and they work 😁. Btw noone else around me uses games or adobe still having windows because its default.
With every year, MS gives more and more arguments for their users to switch to Linux :)
Can't even play my favorite multiplayer games in 2024 on Linux. To many kids cheating with Linux
Yes I agree but Linux for most people is usable like me case to rigid I can't do even the basics of things with out agony and efort and don't get me started on software suport
Microsoft is turning windows into a adware os.
Until I can use my HDR display, play the anti cheat enabled games I have unironically thousands of hours in and have VR gaming be in a not piss poor state I won't be using Linux
You guys always focus on "Microsoft keeps giving reasons to switch to Linux" but not "Linux gives reasons to switch from windows" and that's because Linux isn't a good option, windows is just becoming a worse one

This (Co-Pilot) violates HIPPA immediately for medical Windows machines.
It's HIPAA.
It is also a violation of the 4th Amendment. It doesn't mention anything about only government spying on people. This is also a matter of national security for not only they USA, but the rest of the world as well. They're spying on everyone everywhere.
No idea whats either. Explanation please?
@@Lelende HIPAA are laws in the US governing healthcare privacy. An example of a HIPAA violation would be a healthcare provider telling anyone about a patient's diagnosis, naming the patient and giving personal details about that patient /Patient's health.
@@Lelende HIPAA, or the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, is a U.S. law enacted in 1996. It aims to protect patients' medical records and other personal health information. HIPAA's job is to maintain the privacy and security of health information in the U.S. healthcare system.
No way this Recall thing is legal in the EU with their General Data Protection Regulation
I bet they decline to investigate on account of the data that microsoft will provide to law enforcement because of this feature.
I was just going to say this as well
The EU loves to spy and censor its people y'know to "protect the children" or something like that, so why would they declare this illegal? the only way that will happen is if Microsoft chooses to not cooperate with them by not giving them the data they collect.
jepp, 8 billion USD fine incoming
The GDPR is bs lol. If you think daddy EU cares about you then you're in for a surprise. They might make some bs fixes for a few years until it's normalized. They now include all sorts of bloat ware for EU countries too which was one of the things they couldn't do before.
HOW is Recall a dependency for a feature that worked perfectly fine without it and before it even existed? Complete garbage that Microsoft is shoehorning this slop into every corner of Windows.
Stop asking sensible questions. 😂
Pretty much Microsoft is slowing turning up the heat on the frog.
Yep 🥘 🍽️
It's been boiling since 1992 and people choose to ignore it
*Not that slowly
Slowly?
I'd say that it's more like the frog is approaching boiled status

So we can get the best of both worlds?

HML FTW!
I would not at all be surprised if in fact Recall has its roots in the deep state...
Its reading your files, and hashing them twice, so Microsoft knows who’s naughty and nice.
How does that work without the internet?

@@MorMacFey-v2g by wasting your own PC's CPU and GPU power to run AI.
...Microsoft is spyiiing, on youuu
@@MorMacFey-v2g It doesn't. At least it can't report it back to them, although it will keep around a bunch of information on your system that you'd probably rather not be there.
What I think will happen next:
- Logging into OneDrive will be mandatory alongside the Microsoft account.
- Recall will have a mandatory minimal functionality on the system, like telemetry.
- Recall files will be stored on OneDrive and therefore can be legally accessed by Microsoft because of their ToS and Eula.
Microsoft wouldn't throw out a pricey feature like recall and let users get away with not using it.
I know that very few people including myself aren't gonna wanna hear this but it is actually the unfortunate reality. Windows although arguably the most popular desktop operating system and most likely the most pirated as well, what we all like to ignore or live against is that Windows is closed source (to the best of my knowledge) AND it has a license agreement, meaning that, like android, like iOS, we don't actually own any of these systems, they are borrowed, usually with a hefty price tag, and so we use our cheap, expensive and everywhere in between systems that are running on usually borrowed software, and we've been getting frustrated that this borrowed software keeps invading our privacy despite that being the intent from the gecko. Each new operating system is more and more intrusive, IF you ask me, that's by design. You don't just do everything all at once, it's too obvious, you get people on board and you gradually add to it so fewer and fewer people wanna leave. Like facebook and other social media platforms.
It's not a solution by any means but if you wanna use an operating system that is just a little more free and you're willing to sacrifice corporate apps like MS office, Adobe Photoshop, then go with Linux, which STILL has a license but it's suppose it be free for all.
If you don't wanna be spied on at all... I'd get rid of any computers you have. 😂And that won't be enough either because there's microphones from other people's phones that pick up the environment. You don't have to believe me. You can say I'm crazy. There's enough evidence out there to validate my words.
Cheers
or simply Windows will not permit any drive - only ROM with basic functions and Recall, everything else will be the onedrive.
@@false_positive Well, it's possible. There has been quite a big push to not have people use their own drives anymore and instead use cloud storage.

In other words, Microsoft announces 2025 will be the year of the Linux PC
So PCs are ending.
@@MorMacFey-v2g PCs predate Windows and will survive it
every year is the year of linux PC
Linux will be low single digit share of users until they get rid of their little cults for each version and make a unified/standard baseline interface and settings control that anyone from 5-100 years old can understand by looking at it. The 'basic' user should never have to use the CLI or spend hours looking through forums to fix something. Once they present a more standardized system, more users and software companies will support it.
@@algernopkrieger138 Actually, Linux is already almost at 5% user share. 4.3% last I heard. I'm predicting high single digits for 2025. But there will never be one standardized user interface across all of Linux, just because of different users having different preferences. Though maybe as more non-enthusiast users start to use it, one will become much more common.
This is it folks, time to leave windows behind.
*im my own master now starts playing*
Do they want my social security number while they are at it?
Oh wait, they will see it anyway... silly me.
Better get rid of your cellphone as well. It's listening all the time.
At some point? Yeah. They will. You'll have to verify your identity at some point with a new MS account they will make mandatory to even install the damn os.
With the introduction of "Recall", I have decided to ditch Windows as soon as Windows 10 is no longer supported in almost exactly one year's time. This means that I will then switch to Linux and only run a VM with Win11 for the programmes that simply won't run under Linux.
wish i could use a vm, i have alot of games that simply can not be used in vms
I wish i could do that but my achool require me to use windows, so i am stuck in Windows for like a other 3 year ...
you can very easily find an IoT Enterprise LTSC iso online. it'll have security updates for like 7 years
you can also just stay on 10. your pc won't instantly explode the second w10 support is dropped
@@oscarchampion5842an option is to just have pc for games, a console... Waste of resources maybe but it's an option.

Welcome to Linux.
It's not mandatory for me. I'm not upgrading.
I'm about to stop dual booting all together
I can't believe anyone would believe even for a second when they said it wouldn't be mandatory. Imagine the massive amount of data this could give them access to, there's simply no way they'd give up on that.
But when you said it was a dependency for FILE EXPLORER of ALL THINGS, I laughed from the shock. They're really trying their hardest to advertise Linux and Mac
There are alternative file manages such as file voyager, but I'm not sure how to set them upset as a replacement.
@@Ness_and_Sonic The point is that the majority of people won't take the time to research how to get rid these predatory types of software. Microsoft knows that. It's free data for them.
Microsoft is so hungry for this data harvesting! You pay for windows but you are still a commodity.
"You pay for windows" Um.... yeah about that. 🤣
I've never paid for windows, and now its not even worth pirating
Thank you Chris for all the hard work. I've been fighting this issue for over a week until you explained it to me I didn't understand why it was breaking file explorer. Keep up the awesome work man and great video!
Microsoft should *Recall* there product & start making a normal OS.
This has been the goal since the beginning.
Microsoft loves 3 letter agencies.
but it worships DEI.

@@algernopkrieger138 show me any time a secret backdoor was discovered in a community-run linux distro
@@thezipcreator In October 2019, a potential secret backdoor was discovered in the popular Linux distribution Alpine Linux by security researcher Thomas Jarosch. The issue was related to an outdated version of libseccomp that contained a known vulnerability (CVE-2018-17185). This vulnerability could potentially allow an attacker to escalate their privileges and gain control over the system. Alpine Linux’s maintainers promptly released updates to address this issue, but it raised concerns about community-run distributions having inadequate security measures in place.

It's about time for MANDATORY prison for more than a few people involved with Windows..
This could make using window 11 illegal in certain use cases. In switzerland , using windows 11 in hospitals might breach data protection laws.
I'm done with MS. Been a MS guy forever, tinkered with Linux for years but never stuck. Switched to Linux Mint a few weeks ago and planning to make it permanent. I'm now fully committed to learning to live with a different environment. Thanks MS support, patch team, marketing, product management for making the decision for me!

That's not surprising...the AI recall feature is a gold mine for Microsoft.

All the hoops a Windows poweruser has to jump through and over nowadays after each feature update, just to get the grip back on their OS, it amazes me more and more. GL to all you Windows powerusers!
At one point it's going to be easier to learn Linux, where a few terminal commands are needed from time to time to keep it running smoothly.
@@ereinaudactually the commands may be needed when you first set everything up then it's smooth sailings for years unless you hit a big update. Even small updates are that big a deal on distros like Fedora (which seems kind of rolling distro with how fast they phase out releases)
It sucks, Windows doesn't really need to suck that much but Microsoft just keeps crippling it and bloating it. It's a shame really and I say that as a long time Linux user.
@@ereinaud It already is easier on linux.
@@ereinaud At some point, Windows will require more terminal fuckery than Linux, not to mention the goddamn registry. It really will be fascinating to watch that happen.
"The computer is no longer personal"
If removing Recall, and the file explorer will still functioning without new look, I still willing to take the trade. I really do wish remove Recall and Edge can be added as a toggle.
Because Windows Recall cannot be uninstalled, I've decided to uninstall Windows and install openSuSE Tumbleweed. I don't even dualboot. I simply use Linux.
Good choice. I was a big fan of Open SUSE for a while.
Soon, I'll have to watch "Total Recall" again, with Arnold. Thanks, Microsoft. 😮

A better day didn't exist for the entire Linux community.
Microsoft just handed over the single largest endorsement to linux today.
Personally, I am very happy with Linux's small market share. It can grow a bit, because that will make more applications usable on Linux ... but not too much please, 10-15% max is fine.
That way, the vast majority of crapware is directed at Windows, which makes my OS of choice safer. That's just fine with me.
@@Gaius__the thing is that linux is too decentralized already for "crapware" to ever become pervasive
@@whentheyDi would be more worried about system security. there's precisely nothing or next-to-nothing on Linux compared to Microsoft's PatchGuard, Core Isolation among other stuff. if you ever hear on the internet that Linux is more secure, it's utterly false

@@alec_online Linux Mint Cinnamon is the most friendly toward those that have used windows.
Even if Chris's savvy viewers don't use Microsoft any more there will still be many companies, organisations, government employees etc who will be using it ... and that is where the problem lies. Everyone will be effected by this even if they never touch a computer.
Exactly this. MS has such a monopoly on computing that I don't think it can be broken up even if they wanted to. Think of how integrated Windows is into our infrastructure. It IS what keeps everything going and in order to even switch half of the enterprise infrastructure work stations out there to something else would take many many years and who knows how much $$.
I hate it so much.
I doubt LTSC/Enterprise/IoT copies will have this baked in because this would violate a lot of ToS of certain fields of application at enterprise or service or defense levels
They wouldn’t put all that time an energy into developing a “feature” like this, with everything they’ve invested into OpenAI, just to go “Oops, nevermind!” and walk Recall back entirely the first time it was announced due to backlash.
I actually think they will go through with this myself, they clearly dont care about the enthusiast market anymore. a decision like this means they want that sweet sweet juicy data from the "average person" . so they can directly target advertisements to the midwits that ads actually work on. its a win for them in literally every way. (because you KNOW this will have a way to shove ads in your face). the amount of training data there is what they really want, which I suppose I understand, I just wish they were not so evil about it.
Well with recall, the scariest part is that Microsoft admits that the master developers who solve problems they can’t, are in China. That’s reason enough not to give them access to everything that’s come across your computer in the last 6 months, ESPECIALLY if you have work computers with sensitive information like patents, specific user data, industry secrets etc.
there is nothing china would be doing with our data that these big companies in the US arent already doing.
This would be very dangerous for military.
@@WilliamHollinger2019 it's actually a good thing if it is true (which it probably isn't)
but if it is it'll mean military will drop microsoft.
If you're living in China - sure, but if you're not, then your local government has way more control over you and way more reason to control you and mold you
Goodness your comment is just borderline racist rn
They thought we only think we don't want recall, so made it mandatory
And this is why as soon as Recall was announced I switched to Linux, this shit is ridiculous!
Let's be honest, for large corporations that have partnership with m$, it makes complete sense to be able to monitor everything done in the corporation and have the admin ability to have select key individual (c-suite) exempted.
For everyone else, W10 or Linux is probably more than sufficient.
Problem with win10 is it will stop getting security updates pretty soon. I think Linux is the next big leap. Let's pray Valve capitalizes and lifts Linux to a more mainstream user base
Until they realize it´s an all you can eat buffet for every hacker under the sun.
@@mao7 Similar to chris, I was heavy on windows (read power user) until the beginning of w10. I have since naturally migrated to linux. Wasn't even a conscious choice, it just happened and I only rarely miss features from specific 3rd party software.
Imbecilic apology for them. Please don't do their PR for them. "C-Suites" have their own monitoring software.
@@youtubasoarus Imbecilic comment when there is no apology. Companies are sometimes legally responsible for what employees do in the office. I've worked IT in three different legal systems in two continents. There are places where I've had to install actual spyware to be able to report and prevent crimes of thought as per local laws. For big corps, it makes sense if the spyware comes with the OS. Top decision makers often opt themselves out. I've had to clean a ransomware from a network of that.
Could be nice if the general public moved away from m$.
Probably time for an antitrust, again.
Microsoft making Recall mandatory makes Linux mandatory.
It's insane. I was having extreme issues with File Explorer and gave up for a moment and decided to just chill with a TH-cam video, yours showed up and the exact same issue. Insane!
I wonder how the legality of this will play out. I have a feeling like this will be a problem in Germany for instance.
Agreed. I think EU laws will pose a problem for Microsoft. Look at Apple's latest OS, the built in AI stuff is not available in the EU (not yet anyway).

You know, I was sitting there getting annoyed with little things with Linux. I just switched a few weeks ago, and was thinking of dual booting windows just to ease my headaches.
Now, I'm sticking to Linux, not dealing with this

Switched my household over to Linux Mint last Spring. We've never looked back. It just works. Dump Windows, it's so freeing for you.

I built my new PC last month and made a lot of research about Win11, I made a striped down version of it (custome unattend.xml file) , customized the explorer and even turned off windows update 2 days ago because I had enough of Edge re-downloading and auto-installing itself (1.5 Gigs of wasted space) and I just don't want it on my system. Will update Defender manually.
So yeah, I'm not happy with Microsoft and they're sh*t and having to fight them is getting tiresome.
Yeah the only long lasting problem is Edge reinstalling every time WU runs (22 hours cycle). I don't really remember how I was able to stop Edge permanently from coming back even when I had Edge WebView, since I tried many combinations of known ways and some modifications of WU to stop it, while also not breaking WebView, but it is possible. It is just tricky to do so.
"And you come to a conclusion you wanna come to" I'm already thinking the worst about Bill Gates, Microsoft.... and even Satya Nadella.

@@EXTREMOZAU What do you mean by rigid?
Last time I lambasted Windows 11 for all its intrusive features, and also mentioned Recall, some shill responded with "but it's all optional, you can opt out!" Yeah well.... "until you can't", as I responded back then already. Microsoft makes ALL these features mandatory at some point, that much should be clear as daylight by now.
lol thinking you all have privacy when your own governments spies on you. Kind of pointless since you pay the government to do it. Ignorant to complain now.
It's really funny how predictable all of this is. I think everyone knew when they said it was optional that they weren't being truthful.
The details are fuzzy but IIRC years ago, if you uninstalled Internet Explorer it broke copy/paste for the OS. Nothing has changed.
One Drive then Cortana and Now Recall! What’s next?
Total AI integration that spies on your every move?
Linux
That thumbnail had me rolling. I never have to imagine what Chris would look like after a 4 hour Outback Steakhouse struggle session. Seriously though this recall thing is super concerning and thanks for what you do.
Can we sue Microsft to buy us new SSDs because Recall is killing ouer SSDs?
It's the write cycles what is killing them so...
Go ahead and make a fool out of yourself 🤣🤣🤣
@@jarod1701that's not how lawsuits work. Some perceived social judgement is irrelevant
@@NJ-wb1cz And yet, he will still make a fool out of himself.
@@jarod1701 The fool is the person that makes worries about others may think of him dictate his actions
Do you even know how much write endurance ssds nowadays have? Many of them exceed their TBW rating multiple times. Many 300TBW rated ssds still work after having more than 1PB written to them so stop crying about write cycles. It's more likely that your ssd will die from the logic board dying than because of write cycles. I have a really old kingston ssd bought in 2012 and it's still working even though i exceeded the TBW rating more than 2x
Looks like switching to linux was right call. So far i found alternative for pretty much everything i used on Windows. I am not going back to windows ever again.
So many new Linux users.
so many more people that don't compute.
Hmmm Mint.... Ubuntu.... hmmm
Honestly, I would disable the tabs anyway. i prefer one window for one thing. If i can just disable everything and have some way to make it more like 10 (or 7) that would be great.
Never a better time to be on Linux
wasn't there an interview last week somewhere where a m$ person stated it will be optional and can be fully uninstalled?
What the f are microsoft AND spotify even doing?!
There are 2 options in group policy /registry that you can use to disable it completely and there is an app that can remove copilot completely that doesn’t break anything.
For anyone curious my GitHub has the app provided
Github/Savitarax/File-Resources
AppXPackagesManager is the name of the app.
(Not the original creator of the app, just providing a resource)
And the group policy options are in user configuration/windows components/windows copilot
And the registry settings are in
Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows
2 folders
(WindowsAI) (WindowsCopilot)
Microsoft... I'm gonna have to talk with you.
That is why I am on Linux full time now I use PopOS Cosmic and I am very happy with it
Wait so if it a dependency of windows explorer itself, even ltsc version also going to be affected ?
Can't we just cut the ties it has outgoing connections? I mean, it's a start, better local than online. And maybe find out where it stores this "history" and automate a wipe every time someone logs out?
Linux looks goddamn appetizing
Who at this point even believes that disabling recall stops it from sending screencaps to microsoft
I will NEVER switch to Windows 11, unless the LTSC version does not have this. I don't even know if my computer is "young" enough to run Windows 11 anyway. I'll probably end up switching to Linux. All I need to do is get a Windows XP and a Windows 7 virtual machine up and running (as most of my software will run on them) and I'm good to go.
Afaik the server version does not have this, but even if RIGHT NOW it does not, nothing stops them from adding it with an update later
@@marcogenovesi8570 theres one thing stopping them and that it would be violating the ToS on which companies operate W10 Server machines for the most part.
I think after this, they need to have the run times, kernel, and OS open sourced so the good stuff can be integrated into Linux. They can keep Recall to their proprietary OS for all I care.
I swear if I see another comment saying "This is making me think about switching to Linux". SHUSH! JUST DO IT ALREADY
agreed!
This is making me think about switching to linux
@@bmorg7244 then try it out, maybe in a vm or something so you can find a desktop environment you're comfortable with :)
Im thinking about switching though.
@@InvasionAnimation try it out and see if you like it :3
If this goes through and it will, they'll start adding a similar "feature" to our phones. This will not be just a Microsoft thing.
