- Comment on Windows 11 to add an AI agent that runs in background with access to personal folders, warns of security risk 5 weeks ago:
Looks like Microsoft learn from the Recall controversy. By making the AI stuff opt-in. Sometimes you need to take the small wins from corporations. Because what’s all you going to get from them.
much like how they eventually snuck in their built-in spyware to screenshot your desktop behind the scenes.
Here’s the minimum system requirements for Recall. Like you can see you need a NPU, BitLocker and Windows Hello enabled. So has long you don’t meet the requirements. You have nothing to afraid of.

How to disable Copilot
For Pro, Enterprise, or Education users
Press Windows + R, type gpedit.msc, and press Enter. Navigate to User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows Copilot. Double-click “Turn off Windows Copilot,” select “Enabled,” then click Apply and OK. Restart your computer for the changes to take effect.

Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows. Create a new key named WindowsCopilot if it does not exist. Inside this key, create a new DWORD (32-bit) value named TurnOffWindowsCopilot and set its value to 1. Restart your computer to apply the change.
