"Anything sensitive is always encrypted:" Microsoft's controversial Windows Recall feature that remembers everything you do using AI is finally secure, but will trust follow?

Windows Recall.

What you need to know

  • Microsoft has detailed how it's improved Recall's security with encryption and Windows Hello authentication.
  • Recall's data is now isolated in a VBS Enclave, meaning it's no longer readable by third-party apps and users.
  • Snapshots will now automatically filter out sensitive information like passwords and credit card details.
  • Recall never uploads data to the cloud, and can be uninstalled from the system if you don't want it.
