    Microsoft finally rolls out Recall and Click to Do on Copilot+ PCs

    Microsoft just released its April preview update for Copilot+ PCs, bringing delayed AI features like Recall, Click to Do, and natural language search to general availability. Recall uses on-device NPU processing to retrace past activity with opt-in privacy controls, while Click to Do adds instant contextual shortcuts for on-screen text and images. Why it matters: After months of security overhauls, Microsoft is finally putting its headline local AI features into users' hands to prove whether PC-level ambient AI is worth buying into.

Reaching Release Preview is Microsoft's final milestone before shipping broadly to Windows 11.

    UK watchdog investigates Microsoft's Recall over privacy concerns

    The UK data watchdog just launched an inquiry into Microsoft's new Recall feature, which takes screenshots of Copilot+ PC screens every few seconds to build a searchable history.
