Hacking Windows Recall To See Everything
Вставка

- In this video I show you how the Windows Recall Feature can be hacked on a copilot+ PC to see everything you've done on Windows 11 since you enabled recall. To test this yourself you'll need a copolit+ enabled VM or PC, you can create one now with the amperage kit

@alexthemovie go on make one.
Each screenshot is about ~100kb, it says every 5 seconds it takes a screen shot. Use your computer for roughly 8 hours a day, you're gonna have ~150gb of log data just nesting on your drive. What's the obvious next step?

I work in the U.S. military as an IT technician. I remember discussing with my supervisor the possibility of the military switching over to Linux for their client systems. At the time, it seemed completely implausible. Now it looks inevitable.
German government has decided to go all in on Linux.
Linux follows the first basic rule of security: if you don't need it you remove it.
the govt should make their own branch of debian/arch and hire a horde of programmers
I work in Medical IT. There is no shot our enterprise security department can allow this. I can't imagine the possible HIPPA violations this could cause.
You all can relax. The military has a special version of Windows without the bloatware and telemetry
I'm so exhausted with tech companies. Don't want Bixby. Don't want Cortana. Don't want Co-Pilot. Don't want Recall. Don't want a "smart" TV. Give me a phone, OS, TV, etc. that just works and piss off.
Windows caused huge issues with my tablet and I thought it was broken, but I just had to turn off Ink. The game mode also caused a bunch of issues with games, which I also turned off. I turn off more of Windows than I actually use. I would've switched to Linux already if all my Windows programs worked on it without a huge headache and I didn't have to worry about wrestling with anti-cheat to play a game I bought.

I'm able to play pretty much all of my steam library and I'd say for people like me Linux is perfect even if I'm not a software engineer, the customisable nature of it feels fresh as compared to Windows 11.
I hope that the backlash against this is so huge that Microsoft retracts this feature all together.
The fact that it logs everything... LITERALLY EVERYTHING... Just is absurd...
Oh I hope they don't retract it. It's just what is needed to jolt people out of their complaisance enough to actually move to a different OS. Maybe even companies and governments will recognise the massive risk and switch to something safer and more efficient.

@@bearwolffish It's not even convenience at this point. People still use windows because of a stubborn fear of doing anything differently. I was pretty much the same until all this recall stuff came out and that was the straw that broke the camels back. Been using Mint on my new laptop and so far, for me as a normal ass user who doesn't "need" (though in many cases again this "need" is actually just a refusal to learn new tools) any specific and particular software, it's been basically superior to windows in every single way.

"You don't need *any* freedom of speech because you don't have anything *bad* to say" is a better comparison IMO
Privacy and someone using your data to make money on you is not the same thing. People don't realize that corporations need the data to influence their decisions and even life choices.
Or "you don't need a lawyer if you're not guilty"
This is what I've been telling others since the Recall announcement; even IF Windows wasn't going to use Recall maliciously, it just wraps everything in a neat little package for other malicious actors to access.

the fact that the settings option is under privacy & security is just hilarious
At least they are self aware I guess?
oh yeah man, so "private"
Now you mention it, yes it is.
The thing is that even if you disable it in settings, its easy enough for a hacker to enable it through registry.
Hell, it will probably automatically enable itself after an update.
Well, if you are already hacked, this really doesn't matter, malware can record you, they don't need recall for that at all..
You're assuming the enable/disable switch will actually do anything. "Oh, it's still running after you disabled it? Must be a bug. We'll fix it in the next patch."
Yeh. It's shitty. I wanna set up a Windows 11 VM and see just how deep the Windows Recall rabbit hole goes.
Welcome to modern windows, you're not allowed to access files on your computer, end processes that scan and send your data or disable anything through registry/services/group policies
And then they'll remove the option for you to disable it altogether
most people will use it, not because they don't care about privacy, but because us linux users just largely underestimate the number of people who won't even open the settings once in their life
or they will open it to change the wallpaper or something. hate to admit it but i used to be exactly like that, i even accepted all cookies in websites, KNOWING that it collects your data. 😶😶😶
A lot of people dont think about their OS. Honestly, they shouldn't have to think about it this much. People shouldn't have to be worried about a basic tool like this stealing data and farming it's customers.
Most people won't even know it exists unless they keep up with this stuff, and that's terrifying to me. I shouldn't have to try and explain to my family that they shouldn't update to Windows 11 because it makes them a massive target for hackers. This just should not be an issue for a damn operating system.

Couldn't be happier
@@amygdaliosi never got a single blue screen on windows 10, yet i got 7 blue screens across 2 different devices all relating to "memory" and "storage". i also got locked out of windows 11 because their sign in page glitched out and didn't show the the sign in. only reason i haven't switched to linux or macOS yet is because two games i play with friends don't work on linux at all (wine and vm is blocked by byfron/hyperion and i heard epic games doesn't work on linux), and macOS is too expensive for how broke i am
i swear to god windows 11 should be called windows bug edition and instead of fixing stuff, they add pointless malware-like features
W11 24H2 LTSC IoT just came out and doesn't have any of this crap and most likely never will since it's designed to run IoT applications, and it can be activated with MAS.

What baffles me most is that Recall is not even a killer feature. The mechanisms to cope with acute amnesia already exist and have been around for a long time in every OS. If we forgot what documents we’ve been working on, we can use file search, since files have “created”, “modified”, and “accessed” dates on them. If we forgot where we’ve been on the internet, we can fire up browser history. So we aren’t getting any additional value by having such a resource-intensive redundant history-saving mechanism.
Exactly! It's not hard to search for files with specific names. The Recall software was not asked for at all.
It's (potentially) worse than that. Where are those screenshots saved? To your RAM? Or, the same storage device windows is installed on? If that device just happens to be a SSD, then, that will shorten it's life even more than it would with previous versions of windows.
Yes, there is ample ways to track one's own history through trivial means.
The problem is that instead of MS educating their users on how to use existing tools, they rather remake the wheel yet again for the n-th time, adding onto the growing pile of stupidity that they are building and asking their users to understand. And when users obviously don't understand this, since they never get any real practical information about it, MS goes on to make yet one more feature for the same thing again....
The control panel is a great example of this.
Though, to a bit I can "understand" consolidating all file and web search history into 1 place, even if it is fairly stupid in practice...
Though, at least it isn't as abhorrently bad as local search also searching the web, imagine how much data leaks out of organizations due to this alone, telling search engines about the name or potential content of potential files spills a lot of information about what happens inside an organization, and I guess Bing/MS could make some real use out of that information...
It's all metric & training data for companies to fire all their office employees.
The customer is corporations not humans.
"You should not trust Microsoft to put software in your computer." That is a complete and true statement right there.
"recall data is stored locally on your computer"
"until it isn't"
"I Am Altering the Deal, Pray I Don’t Alter It Any Further."
Before, malware/spyware had to run for a few hours/days to collect your data. With recall, the data is already there and the spyware only needs to run for a couple minutes, then it can uninstall itself and you never know you were spied on. The window for detection is tremendously narrowed.
huh... you know you make a good point. Hadn't even realized this.
Already got hacked, and it's not even fully rolled out

Let's not pretend like he is doing this on a production ready version of recall. All Microsoft has to do is perform the trivial task of encryption.

@@Noneofyourbusiness2000I mean sure but every new "module" to "feature" they add is a new vulnerability in itself. It's not realistic to audit tens of millions of lines of code so adding more workload is even worse, especially something that can operate on a network which increases the attack surface. I know this also goes for Linux distros which is just as bad but at least I can stay delusional by thinking that anyone can fix the code.

Ah, the Elon Musk manoeuvre
OnlyFans doesn't let you search "passwords" between time and date
Laughing like a gremlin because I facepalmed right as you played that clip - as a Windows/Linux admin, this doesn't surprise me in the least. I actively dread having to start from the ground up to defang Windows 11 with its own GPO and regkeys via GPP so that we're not actively deploying a steaming dumpster fire to everyone (it's bad enough that home dirs are on OneDrive...)
Windows 11's home directories are WHAT
No, no, like, seriously. As someone who hasn't used Windows in years, is Microsoft really uploading your whole home dir to OneDrive?? Most file exfiltrator malwares don't even do that
Yes you can deactivate telemetry with GPO (in Enterprise and Education) and you don't need to use OneDrive for the library directories.
I have to use Win laptop at my work. First thing I did when I got a laptop was disabling OneDrive. To my surprise later on I learned even if you remove bloody thing there is some background service still alive, pushing all Document/Desktop etc. files to the cloud.
At this point Microsoft should just make Windows fully run on Azure.
@@SimpMcSimpy At work, your IT department sets requirements to push your info to the cloud to backup your info. In case you upgrade your laptop, you can get the same documents/files with little drop off (you will have to reinstall apps).

@@TheyCallMeIceyeah, everything goes there by default. And basic storage is tiny, then eventually non-tech people get messages saying they are out of storage and need to rent more, guess what happens
0:50 a lot of people do care. But the mountain of inconvenience of switching to an alternative is growing every single day. It's this very attitude that allows Microsoft to get away with stuff like this because the average user, like me, isn't looking to join a whole community or memorize terminal commands just to download steam only to find out most of the games can't be played without a ton of configuration. Normies don't have a "Windows community" it's just the OS they use. The moment someone can create a Linux distro that people can just use and they never have to see the word "sudo" even once, guarantee they take over and the entire industry changes. But so many Linux users aren't just users, they dedicate enough brain power to it that it's like a part time job and it becomes a community of like-minded people cause that's the beauty of a high barrier to entry hobby. I'm not trying to say that the normies are in the right but I'm saying this way of thinking like comparing the normies to cattle in factory farming does nothing to bring people together and actually serves to drive people apart. At the end of the day it's a matter of convenience, I'm sure there's things you do that you consider not worth it even though it's less secure. The most secure people would just never ever use technology to begin with but eventually you gotta compromise somewhere. The issue is that it's getting more and more inconvenient to switch away from windows as time goes on, not less convenient.
You're right. Linux chads need to realize normies can't open the terminal and run anything.
Yeah, Linux fucking sucks for desktop
@@jackMeought-fr8vl dude Linux isn't just a terminal it also functions like a normal computer operating system and Linux isn't just one os thare is a long list of Linux distos out there like Linux mint and arch Linux
Bruh...you can use beginner focused distros like mint. Its fine if you dont want to rice your PC. Also, you can get away without typing sudo like stuff, if you gotta update your distro. It is understandable that certain professional softwares aren't available. Same for games as well. However, the "sudo" argument is nonsense. I am certainly getting away without doing any sudo related stuff.
Linux is definitely terminal focused, but it is not as hard as you outline it to be. There are many distros that are beginner friendly, you just have to have the patience to learn something new
This is some dystopian foreshadowing Microsoft.

I remember everyone going crazy about 10, I built my first computer for 10 I have been on 10 since 2018. Once I saw Microsoft hold your data hostage by tying it to an account an encrypting with a tpm, as well as all other spyware, I decided I was never going to 11.... Now I know for a fact that my days with Windows will soon vanish with 10, it's going to be hard, really hard, I have spent the last 6 years learning the ins and outs of 10, setting up a nas, a minecraft server, a palworld server, and many other things.... It's going to be pain going to linux. But 11 is unbearable. By golly Microsoft, what Orwellian world are you trying to build?
Linux mint is the easiest way! Maybe Pop OS if you need a gaming distro.
Moving to a new OS is rather like moving to a new country and learning to drive on the other side of the road. You basically know where everything is and how it works but things don't fall to hand quite as easily and it can be a bit scary at times. However, you quickly get used to it because the fundamental concepts remain the same.
@@dingokidneys I learned pretty quickly by using a lot of the video guides people have on here, as well as scanning through the linux mint forums. Basically in 2 days i went from lifelong windows user to using mint.
Swapped my dads laptop over to cinnamon mint, he's in his mid 60's and he's doing just fine, i taught him how to use the update manager and he's been enjoying it this last month.
Linux came a long way. It's not hard to learn at all. Terminal commands like DOS. So may flavors. Mint, Arch, MX, Kali, Endeavours, Ubuntu and the list goes on and on.
Just about started watching, but in any case, the biggest takeaway - shift to Linux and abandon Windows if you deeply care about privacy
Well if you deeply care about privacy, you would have jumped ship long ago
@@leoncioferreira570 The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now.
Not only privacy. Security, safety and by now even performance as well! Most games run faster on Linux than on windows, thanks to Valve. And you don't give up your control about your very own stuff.
@@TheBigLou13 To be fair *most* games still don't run on linux at all, let alone faster (I suppose you can use wine or something, but that's not reliable to say the least), even with efforts and advancements valve has made. But not being able to play some video games is worth the trade off of not having native malware preinstalled on my machine. At least to me it is.
What do y'all do with this iron curtain of privacy anyway?
I've done some risque stuff on my bare IP and it's becoming obvious the privacy industry is an inflated issue propagated by scammers and other cyber criminals who need normie scapegoats to blend in with...
Privacy is the new tool for division and conquest. If you cannot see that, then surely you must be blind!
so this is whyjWindows 11 installs itself like a trojan
Is there anything stopping you from _modifying_ the data? That could be abused for blackmail, framing someone, etc...
a vital skynet component, no doubt
Redline Stealer: Now powered by Windows Recall!
The window has grown into a door wide open
Why did this comment make me think of Goatse? "Come and get it boys!"
door? More like a gate. A bill gate.
I legitimately cannot wrap my head around HOW some people are okay with this. I've spoken to many people about this already and SO VERY FEW of them see it as an issue, even after trying to explain why it is wrong.
Microsoft is just asking for a lawsuit at this point
I have used Windows my whole life, but month back I fully switched to Linux. Only regret I have is why I didnt do it earlier.
Yes! I'm a Linux user for a week and it was super ez to switch.
Linux has rised to the level of usability as windows and the only things you loose is gaming (not on steam) and some professional programs
Linux is better than windows not limiting you from doing things windows won't let you do like that crap microsoft edge uninstall and their services.
i tried some distros but i guess i gotta configure them more because of things windows comes with (e.g. features, shortcuts) that didn't exist out of the box on the linux distros I've tried :/
also there's some tiny, niche, obscure old programs that I run on windows - would wine be enough?
just some fears for me but i get more and more eager to do the switch
@@kipchickensouthonestly just stick with windows, they are going to implement this anyway and your change of OS isn't going to deter them. Why make your life more complicated?
@@kipchickensoutDon't listen to the bootlicker. Run dual boot instead. Everyday usage you use Linux, if you need the special software you boot up windows.
@@erk_viewer yeah I miss some games :')
feds to newer feds: *we're going to watch this as a cost cutting measure*
Doesn't this violate GDPR and PCI? If I'm a customer service representative, this means saving customer data locally and unencrypted. If I'm taking a phone order and entering a credit card into a virtual terminal, I'm changing the whole company's PCI classification by having this information saved locally. And since it's part of the OS, a malware scanner won't even detect it, bypassing another PCI requirement.
it likely does outside some obscure series of loopholes im not aware of... i wonder if microsoft is counting on their market size being enough to make legislators balk at taking any action. a lot of things run on windows even atms, if they had to suddenly cut windows outta the country it would cause mass chaos. if i can see this microsoft likely can too... if lawmakers decide to go f it do it anyway this could spell disaster for microsoft as it would break their "monopoly" in the area by creating an exploitable vacuum that competetors/ third parties can exploit. it could also renew calls to break up microsoft as well once the new cycle picks up the news that they got hit with regulation and the results are in joe smiths face... a clever marketing team at microsoft might be able to prevert the anger twords the legislature instead with varying degrees of success.
@@someguy4252 This has nothing to do with regulation, it's PCI compliance with Visa/MC/banks. If a company has a data breach and is found to not be PCI compliant at the time of the breach, the penalty is high. As soon as you store a number, the security demands are very high on how you store it. Yet Recall will force every business that takes phone orders to store credit card numbers unencrypted. It's a severe violation, and exposes every company to massive financial liability. This is why we don't run our own payment systems anymore. Storing payment information is a sober responsibility.
Ive been switching on and off from windows and arch a lot, but this is the final nail in the coffin. It has also gotten easier to just emulate windows through Linux and use all adobe products (or maybe my autism spectrum is just too high to call it "easy" lmao)
Matter of fact my university has given us thinkpads with Linux Mint installed since this year began lmao
3 weeks into linux and i must say holy shit how blind i was as to not try it before. It feels ethereal to not have microsoft breathing down my neck to see everything that i do and grab every last pixel as their adspace
It's a liberating experience if you use your PC a lot, but do keep in mind that due to the nature of the internet, you will still have some telemetry in web-centric apps like a web browser or Steam. At the operating system level, though, it's radio silence, just like it should be
@@avisprimeyi don't mind web ad space but the OS should never have telemetry or ads baked in. I could understand telemetry if it was only for system integrity health so patches could fix potential problems in the future. Problem is I don't trust microshaft since I found them over paying for vudu through the Xbox live. Yes I have a Xbox for watching vudu.
its such a wasteful process too, its just a glorified history tab.
Right? I m still looking for the new -useful- featuress in this 24H2 release.
That image generation in paint, yeah, cool. But few people actually use paint on a daily basis.
Recall? Okay, no.The 2 times per month this feature would actually be useful I would much rather trade for an Excel or Word that does not lag or crash on a regular basis.
"Being able to ai search complicated queries to find contexts in files is just a glorified history tab"
You people are so clueless it hurts.
@@Sammysapphira It really is though. It is a glorified history tab for your windows activity instead of your browser activity, just much less useful.
@@scientificthesis
Phones even have image queries. I dont see the proclaimed innovation or „AI“. Most is done by OCR-scanning (files).
The wirst thing about this is the unencrypted storage of the snapshots that can be maliciously accessed. No hard drive encryption will help, if somebody is directly on your device. This is far more invasive than the library processing of images on a smartphone to image query.
There sure is more to come in terms of more practice oriented AI.
Why would I use recall to reopen something, when I can - instead of searching within recall to reopen it - reopen the file itself.
Only usecase: I deleted a file permanently and want to access contents of it. This is the only useful case I can imagine.
Yes, thats why the word 'glorified' was used. @@Sammysapphira
For new or future Linux users, avoid niche distros (or flavors) of Linux. Pick something with a lot of support like ubuntu first. It will provide a much better user experience while you learn.
Mint!
Mint or Pop_OS
and definitely not Ubuntu ;-)
Debian is good too.
Ubuntu, while definitely one of the most usable distros, has some privacy issues of its own I believe
The scariest part about this, is not microsoft auto enabling this on sight but a hacker downloading the amperage kit to the infected computer and simply turning it on. Imagine the juicy data harvesting on Non-copilot+ pcs
Microsoft is setting itself up for liability suites - fireworks and beefy lawsuits. Total Madness.
Microsoft is gonna make the FTX Lawsuit seem like chump change in comparison
I'm waiting for the flood of videos of "Feds were able to find X person due to the Recall function in Windows" I just know it will happen.
all the fed would have to do is search through their computer, and the evidence would be all there! assuming theyre stupid enough to do something illegal on windows 11, but some people seem like they really dont think...
If the dislike button plugin I use is within spitting distance of the actual number of dislikes. That's got to be the best ratio I've seen. Goes to show there isn't much controversy over the position of this being a scary feature.
Cant wait for the sheer amount of login credentials and propriety code leaks caused by Recall to happen!
Gates now has the life expectancy of an old housefly. He over-played this hand. The next face plant he gets won't be a pie!
He didn't get it from promoting liquid moloch, you think he is going to get this for yet another windows 11 feature? lol
Windows , your front door to the NSA
🤣
There might not be that many people actually leaving windows to linux, but our numbers grow by the day
I was already pissed off at windows due to so many issues, this updated finally pushed me to linux.
mint!
installed mint on my machine almost 2 weeks ago, it has its downsides, but it's so worth it... plus it's faster
@@musicalneptunian Yea that's the one I'm picking.
@@GDNachoo For now I'm still keeping windows just in case and will try linux from a bootable external ssd.
@@Macintosh007 Just make sure you have BitLocker disabled on Windows first!, else you'll need to unlock it when you try to get back into Windows
All my homies turning to linux
Mint!
Debian! But I'd recommend starting with Mint
@@avisprimey I'm really confused, is it just me who went through absolute package management hell on Debian? When I tried Mint there was always SOME new package manager that I needed to install, then it most likely didn't work so I needed to fix it, and then what I was trying to install didn't launch properly anyway. On Arch I either do Pacman or from the AUR, or sometimes just a regular makefile or bash script.
@@another-niko-pfp-holder No, I switched to Manjaro this year mainly over the absolute nightmare that is getting current MESA onto anything running debian. About the only thing I mess from Mint is certain UI elements.
@@Nick-ue7iw You could just install the cinnamon version of Manjaro, it worked fine for me
Nothing like taking snapshots of your credit card info or uploading your confidential business plans to an AI.
i almost "upgraded" to windows 11 yesterday glad i didn't, Think imma stay on 10 for a while and then eventually move to Linux mint which from what i tried is very user friendly for someone is very tech incompetent such as myself. I just hope wallpaper engine gets linux support
If that code is already implemented into the system. I am 100% sure that this will still be active even if you turn that off. Maybe not to that extent but still its there.
And its also easy to reactivate it by some hacker... so they have the spyware tool already built in. On the next visit they have everything they need handed over by M$
this is literally the first time yt popping video from my subs list this fast...
if it aint a sign....
I went from testing live linux distros, to dual booting linux and windows to finally just using linux full time and turning my windows partition into a VM if I ever need it (I still haven't found a need for it but it's nice to have)
I guess this would be the perfect time for a Linux tutorial 101
Damn, I was sure this video's opening would be like, "*laughter*, 'Oh boy.'"
Hackers get easy life with every new windows. This never gets old. I've heard that in 1996.
It never changes, does it? The ways we could make fun of Windows back in 1996 are the same ways we could make fun of it now
@@avisprimey Corrupt since 96. Thats a brand quality.
I feel like when I talk to others about data collection they don't see the danger of data collection. Maybe a cool video idea is talking about the dangers of companies collecting your data!
A lot of the time, it is to serve you targeted ads, in the hopes that you engage with them.
People who are very well off probably don’t mind ads.
That’s usually the case with retired grandmas who are the target audience for this feature.
They’re rich with nothing to lose.
I am in the process of moving to Linux, currently dual booting win11 and garuda hyperland. I wanted to do something wack for my... Second time in about 5 years using Linux, and so far really enjoying it. Not enjoying the issues, but so far I've been able to work through most of them. It's in a mostly stable state right now, and once it's fully up and working I'll probably try and get rid of the rest of windows
The FBI must be so turned on rn
"What you mean by 'everything'?"
"Everything!"
Wouldn’t this violate every NDA signed by people that use Windows for work?
Best ad for Linux ever
true
This was the final straw for me. I'd been dual-booting Linux and Windows. Since yesterday I'm only running Linux and never going back.
Windows Recall: The feature that bypasses privacy laws, with the one simple click of "I accept" we welcome you to the data farm.
I think this will blow up to be way funnier than it actually is, the app data directory keeps getting bloated to the point your windows can't boot, now they're gonna add 25 gigabytes of screenshots to it. Amazing feature, I still can't understand why every apps garbage needs to be in the app data directory and why you can't change it.
2:12 This is half true. It's encrypted as long as you aren't signed in. Which means it really only protects you if someone steals your device, not when you're using it.
