What is Microsoft Recall?

Microsoft Recall is an AI-powered feature in Windows 11 that is designed specifically for Copilot+ PCs. It takes screenshots of your screen activities at regular intervals and stores them locally on your PC. These screenshots are then analyzed by AI, enabling you to search for specific content you previously viewed, such as a website, document, or application.

How can I check whether Recall is on my computer?

It's safe to assume that Microsoft Recall is already installed on any computer receiving regular Windows 11 updates–though it’s disabled by default. With Ashampoo Stop Recall, you can easily verify whether this is the case! The program scans the Windows Registry to check Recall's activation status. You'll immediately see whether Recall is enabled and, if so, you'll be able to disable it instantly.

Can I uninstall Microsoft Recall?

If Recall is present, it'll be tightly integrated with your system so you won't be able to just uninstall it without side effects. Currently, your best option is to disable it so no unwanted screenshots are taken and analyzed. Put your mind at ease and get Ashampoo Stop Recall today!
