It's not a bug, you actually CAN uninstall Windows Recall if you don't want it on Copilot+ PCs

Windows Recall.

What you need to know

  • A few weeks ago, Microsoft issued a statement claiming the option to remove Recall from Windows 11 was appearing as just a bug, and that it would be fixed in a forthcoming update.
  • Turns out that's not true, as Microsoft has today confirmed that you will in fact be able to remove Recall from the OS if you don't want it.
  • Removing it will uninstall the app as a system component via the "Turn Windows features on and off" interface.
