There was no option to not install it, no option to not enable it and whilst the "Recall" feature (spyware) is currently no installed and running, the main component of it is running.

As it is, there is not a single NPU installed in any of the "Copilot Plus PC's" that will be able to come close to matching the performance of my PC that I use for OBS, Discord and video editing never mind the one I use for Unraid Server or hell even my gaming pc when it comes to AI Workloads!

The fact is Microsoft are lying once again, they are currently being called out for it and will soon find themselves in court over it.

No hypothetical question needed, it is Mandatory to have it installed on your PC as it is now a CORE component of the Windows File Explorer!

Yes you can "Disable it" but you cannot fully turn it off, you cannot remove it and you certainly have no choice about it, if you are a gamer or cannot use Linux because the software you use has not got the ability to run on Linux.

All PC's no matter whether they have an NPU or not will have this forced on them, the only difference initially is if you have the "Recall App" or not, but ALL Windows 11 PC's will have Recall and Co-Pilot and there is nothing you can do to stop it!

it is not at all wouldnt be to opt out or remove it if it was
