Typical Microsoft! Disabling Windows Recall is Breaking File Explorer

This may be of use to someone on forum

"Earlier this year, we were caught off-guard by Microsoft when they came up with a creepy move to spy on users with a new AI-powered feature called Recall.

When active, the feature takes snapshots of the screen a user is working on, to then catalog it, and serve for later fetching as a scrollable timeline. It was supposed to be disabled by default, but, it appears, Microsoft has gone back to enabling it by default.

The 24H2 release installs Recall on all PCs, not just Copilot+ PCs. But, that's not all. Recall also breaks an important Windows feature if someone tries to remove it."

I have two PCs. I have just upgraded both to 24H2. My Gigabyte B460M just updated the Cumulative .NET Framework with KB5044033 and the Win 11 update with KB504285. Both worked as expected.
This is a query I have just posted on 'elevenforum' and pose it here for your consideration.

But, my main PC Asus Z490Z used KB5044030 and KB5044284. The upgrades both failed when at 40% and reverted back. What do I do now? Is it just a case for MS to replace these two upgrades? Any idea why the two different programs for two different motherboards? Both of these updates are now sitting waiting to be installed (yet again!).

In among the crap coming out of American politics, there are some things that just break my heart. This one is an example. Thank all that is good I live in this country, where we are by no means perfect, but at least the days of illegal and appallingly cruel abortion deliveries are gone. May we never go back to them.

This is very interesting, quite a long read but worthwhile.

I made an appointment for two of us through the Book My Vaccine website.  Got the usual confirmations and a text reminder this morning.   We turned up at the venue to be told that they aren't vaccinating any more and the website had been notified but hadn't updated its information.   So we drove to the only other local provider, a pharmacy, to be told that they are out of stock, that they don't take bookings any more either, and that we should try them again in a few days' time to see if their new stock has arrived but it could be the week after.

So much for the productivity gains from sacking the back room staff who would have updated the web site:   this has used up at least an hour of two people's time.  

I am furious.   Covid is still real!
