Microsoft Recall is now an explorer.exe dependency - eviltoast

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.

      It still can’t… Hidden somewhere deep in windows, there is still a IE, believe me.

        At very least there’s an OCX for InteractiveHtmlView or some stuff. It’s how South Korean banks apps run. I think even the EU-specific “unbundled IE” versions still have that ActiveX / OLE control registered, though it might be crippled.
