3 months ago If there is an API in Windows 11 to directly exclude DOSBox-X from "Recall" without disabling the ability to screen record (such as a user that wants to OBS live stream without Recall scraping it), I'd be happy to use that API to do it.

3 months ago Huh... so if the existing C++ can call WinRT, I might see if DOSBox-X could feed (if directed) empty user activity events to Recall that have nothing or bogus data. If a program explicitly sends the user "activity" does that stop Recall from scraping the window on it's own? :)

3 months ago Done. Also Mac OS has a similar feature although all we can do is make the window blank, but, same idea.
In case Apple is dumb enough to think "Recall" is a really great idea worth adding to Mac OS.

What you want
Add an option for Windows 11 users to protect their DOS gaming from the "Recall" feature by marking the DOSBox window as excluded from screen capture using this API: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/winuser/nf-winuser-setwindowdisplayaffinity
Yes, it's not enabled on PCs now but I wouldn't be surprised if Microsoft gets so excited about their new feature they roll it out to everyone later on.
