@xxJackxx ,

AdGuard for Windows 7.21 RC, Release date: July 15, 2025
https://adguard.com/en/versions/windows/beta.html#version-72150730

Along with the usual bug fixes, this version brings something new for those using Microsoft’s latest Copilot+ PCs. The Tracking protection section in AdGuard for Windows now includes an option Disable Windows Recall. Why is it needed?
This feature blocks Recall, a tool that periodically takes screenshots and stores them locally, so you can search through your past activity like a timeline.
Microsoft claims it’s private enough: it’s off by default, requires Windows Hello authentication, avoids collecting sensitive data like credit card numbers or ID documents, and encrypts all stored data.
But for AdGuard, that’s not enough. Screenshots still capture what’s on your screen — and not everything that’s private can be reliably filtered out. For example, a chat window, a partial account number, or something as simple as your to-do list could be saved without your knowing.
While Copilot+ PCs are still new and not widely used yet, they’ll likely become the new norm soon enough. AdGuard is ready to protect your privacy even before that happens.
To stop Windows from capturing your screen activity, go to Settings → Tracking Protection → Windows Tracking and turn on Disable Windows Recall.

AdGuard calls Windows Recall a Privacy Concern. That's putting it mildly. Microsoft claims it is privacy-friendly, and that it is not enabled by default. It requires Windows Hello and a PIN for authentication, and that the data is encrypted and stored locally on the PC. But it remains to be seen whether it is fool-proof from malware or backdoors.

What if it accidentally captures screenshots that contain personal data or financial information? Given the sensitive nature of information that is at stake, the risk is too great to ignore. That's why apps are blocking Recall, to protect users. AdGuard warns that while Windows Recall is now only available on Copilot+ PCs, such computers may become mainstream in the future.
