Microsoft Recall is now an explorer.exe dependency

TLDR:
Windows 11 v24H2 and beyond will have Recall installed on every system. Attempting to remove Recall will now break some file explorer features such as tabs.

Looks like I picked the right year to switch to Linux on my primary pc.

Switching to Free Software is kind of like planting a tree: the best time was years ago (because you'd be over the learning curve). The second-best time is now.

That said, it's getting so much better every year. It's already ahead of Windows in user-friendlyness IMO, but every year I'm amazed by how much cooler it gets.

The only thing I can say is that on Linux, you get excited by the thought of updating your system. It's like a Christmas feeling instead of a Monday one.

Agree. And as someone who planted that tree 25 years ago, the shade sure is nice year after year.

I made the jump last year. There will be ups and downs but I don't plan on using another OS on my computers ever.
