Recall is the upcoming Copilot+ feature that acts as a photographic memory of your PC.
It does this by taking a screenshot of everything you do every few seconds.
The company promised to publish another blog post soon to let WIP members know how to access it.

Microsoft promised Recall was still coming and soon, though theres no definite timeline for when and how.
Last week, security researchers and a wary customer base forced Microsoft tobacktrack on its plans for Recall.
That could include financial info or any sensitive personal data.
Now, Microsoft will force all users to use Windows Hello to dive into the timeline feature.
The company also clarified that Recall would still be restricted to the new Copilot+ PCs.
According to Microsoft, this is due to the NPU hardware requirements on the new PCs.
Just remember, nerdowells may also be interested in accessing those screenshots.
