Microsoft told Windows Latest that it accidentally shipped the AI-powered OneDrive Photos app on Windows 11 more broadly than it should have.

      This is a classic Microsoft strategy, happened many many times.

        Rarely do they apologize and swear to do better first, though.

            You aren’t wrong, but I can’t think of worse PR than promising to make something better and doing the exact opposite.

    Microsoft also told Windows Latest that OneDrive Photos cannot currently be removed from PCs unless you delete OneDrive entirely

    Seems like a pretty easy way to remove it right there
