Windows 11: Disable Windows Recall AI (3 Methods)
Someone has already figured out how to enable the Windows Recall AI feature on Windows 11 on devices without an NPU, but that's not something you want to do. Although the requirements say you need a Copilot+ PC with a Qualcomm Snapdragon X-series processor with an NPU (Neural Processing Unit), 16GB of memory, and at least 256GB of storage, @thebookisclosed on X figured out how to bypass the requirements to run the feature on unsupported hardware.
This workaround works on ARM-based devices, but could theoretically work on Intel and AMD processors as well. For this experiment, @thebookisclosed was able to get the feature working on a computer with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 7c+ Gen3 with no NPU and 3.4GB of memory.
The workaround enables the Recall app interface next to the taskbar icon and taskbar menu, allowing you to open or pause the feature.
