## Overview

Recall (preview) was introduced earlier this year, with the ability to enable you to quickly find and jump back into what you have seen before on your PC. You can use an explorable timeline to find the content you remember seeing before. You can also use semantic powered search and just describe how you remember something and Recall will retrieve the moment you saw it. Any photo, link, or message can be a fresh point to continue from.
Recall (preview) was introduced in 2024, with the ability to enable you to quickly find and jump back into what you have seen before on your PC. You can use an explorable timeline to find the content you remember seeing before. You can also use semantic powered search and just describe how you remember something and Recall will retrieve the moment you saw it. Any photo, link, or message can be a fresh point to continue from.

To use Recall you need to opt in to saving snapshots, which are screenshots of your activity. Snapshots and the contextual information derived from them are saved and encrypted to your local hard drive. Recall does not share snapshots or associated data with Microsoft or third parties, nor is it shared between different Windows users on the same device. Windows will ask for your permission before saving snapshots. You are always in control of what apps and websites get saved in snapshots, and you can delete snapshots, pause or turn them off at any time. Any future options for the user to share data will require fully informed explicit action by the user.

- **Data privacy, compliance, and security**

The developer holds responsibility for managing updates, ensuring compatibility, and monitoring security vulnerabilities.

- - **Cloud:** Cloud providers offer robust security measures, but data needs to be transferred to the cloud, which might raise data privacy concerns for the business or app service maintainer in some cases. Sending data to the cloud also must comply with data protection regulations, such as GDPR or HIPAA, depending on the nature of the data and the region in which the app operates. Cloud providers typically handle security updates and maintenance, but users must ensure that they are using secure APIs and following best practices for data handling.

Cloud providers typically handle security updates and maintenance, but users must ensure that they are using secure APIs and following best practices for data handling.

- **Resource availability**

- **Local, on-premises:** Running a model depends on the resources available on the device being used, including the CPU, GPU, NPU, memory, and storage capacity. This can be limiting if the device does not have high computational power or sufficient storage. Small Language Models (SLMs), like [Phi](./apis/phi-silica.md), are more suitable for local use on a device. [Copilot+ PCs](https://www.microsoft.com/windows/copilot-plus-pcs) offer built-in models with ready-to-use AI features supported by [Microsoft Foundry on Windows](./apis/index.md).

- - **Cloud:** Cloud platforms, such as [Azure AI Services](/azure/ai-services/), offer scalable resources. You can use as much computational power or storage as you need and only pay for what you use. Large Language Models (LLMs), like the [OpenAI language models](https://platform.openai.com/docs/models), require more resources, but are also more powerful.

# Check execution provider versions in Windows ML

Most execution providers in Windows ML are dynamically acquired via Windows Update at runtime as seen in [Install Windows ML EPs](./initialize-execution-providers.md), and updated versions are automatically updated (with compatible updates) as described in [Update Windows ML EPs](./update-execution-providers.md), meaning the version of the EP might vary over time.

See the [supported execution providers docs](./supported-execution-providers.md) to see what execution providers are available and their release history.
