"We [force] installed OneDrive Photos on your PC; Microsoft effectively told Windows Latest in a statement when I asked why the app suddenly showed up on PCs. The company also offered a bit of explanation about what exactly is happening.“OneDrive Photos is part of the OneDrive app, so it arrived with a OneDrive update rather than as a separate download,” the company explained. “It brings the OneDrive photo experience from the web and mobile apps to the Windows desktop.”Over the past few weeks, I’ve been tracking the mysterious OneDrive Photos app, which showed up on production Windows 11 PCs even if you don’t use a personal Microsoft account. That immediately caused outrage, and until now, Microsoft had refused to explain the rollout, maintaining complete radio silence. I’ve finally heard back from the company."https://www.windowslatest.com/2026/08/07/microsoft-admits-it-force-installed-ai-powered-onedrive-on-windows-11-says-its-not-training-on-your-faces-really/#Windows #Microsoft #AI...
