Microsoft expands Recall preview to Intel and AMD Copilot+ PCs

​Microsoft is now testing its AI-powered Recall feature on AMD and Intel-powered Copilot+ PCs enrolled in the Windows 11 Insider program.

The company started rolling out the first preview of Recall to Snapdragon Copilot+ PCs last month after two delays in June and October.

First introduced in May, Recall is a Windows feature that captures screenshots of active windows every few seconds, analyzes them, and allows Windows 11 users for specific snapshots using natural language.

However, after it was unveiled, experts warned that it could be a security risk, as attackers could misuse it to steal data. To address this, Microsoft made Recall an opt-in and removable feature that requires to confirm their presence using Windows Hello.

Recall now also filters out sensitive information, including credit card numbers and passwords, according to Redmond, and it also allows users to exclude certain apps, websites, or in-private browsing sessions from being saved.

David Weston, Microsoft’s VP for Enterprise and OS Security, also said it includes anti-hammering and rate-limiting protection against malware, and it allows users to adjust storage settings, delete snapshots, and turn off saving snapshots completely.

​”As we gradually roll out Recall in preview, Recall is supported on select languages including Chinese (simplified), English, French, German, Japanese, and Spanish. As part of today’s update, we’re expanding the roll out of Recall (Preview) through the Windows Insider Program to the European Economic Area (EEA),” Redmond said today.

“With the AI capabilities of Copilot+ PCs, it’s now possible to quickly find and get back to apps, website, image, or document just by describing its content.”

With today’s preview expansion, Redmond also adds support for Image Creator and Restyle Image to the Microsoft Photos app on AMD and Intel-powered Copilot+ PCs, as well as the Click to Do for Recall with options to help rewrite and summarize text and change its tone to sound more formal or more casual.

These changes are rolling out today to Windows Insiders in the Dev Channel after installing the Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 26120.2510 (KB5048780).
