Microsoft’s Recall feature on Windows 11 is raising serious concerns about privacy and security. The tool automatically captures and stores screenshots every three seconds, creating a searchable database of user activity. Cybersecurity experts warn that this feature could expose sensitive information, including financial records, medical details, passwords, emails, and video calls. Users must ask themselves whether they are comfortable with their personal data being stored this way.
Recall functions by continuously recording the contents of a user’s screen, allowing for easy retrieval of past interactions. Microsoft insists that the data is encrypted, but researchers have found ways to access stored images under certain conditions. Even with added security layers, the risk remains that this data could be exploited.
Microsoft first introduced Recall in 2024, but the backlash led to its temporary removal from Windows 11 previews. The company later reintroduced it with encryption and an opt-in setting, yet security analysts continue to find vulnerabilities.
