TLDR:
Windows 11 v24H2 and beyond will have Recall installed on every system. Attempting to remove Recall will now break some file explorer features such as tabs.

So, iirc, recall was a copilot+ PC "feature". Will this recall integration be the case on "normal" x86 PCs as well?

I moved all my personal stuff over to linux ~~Windows~~ about a year and a half ago. Unfortunately, there's still a few things in my life that requires windows...

Edit: I can't type, apparently

Oh my fucking god.

If I still knew anyone who uses Windows I would be laughing at them.

What happens if you copy explorer.exe from a prior release of Windows and replace the recall-infested version?
