Windows 10 Disable Face Recognition in Images

Windows 10: The face detection technology for identifying people in photos. Today it is used by Apple, Facebook and even Microsoft.

The Windows 10 Photos app can find all the photos of a particular person. If you think the event is a little too invasive, you can turn off face detection and recognition.Windows 10

The Photos or Photos app still does not allow you to associate a name with a person. So if you want to search for photos of a particular person, you should look at the People tab. You can not type your name in the search bar and find the photos.

It may be a little less invasive than Facebook and Apple's feature, but you may still want to turn off tracking and .

Open the Photos app and do on the “More” button at the top right of your profile picture. Select Settings from the menu that will open.

In the app's settings screen, scroll down to the View and edit section. Look for the 'People' switch and toggle it off to disable her detection and identification of persons.

The change will be applied immediately.

Windows seems to be the only platform that allows its users to turn face detection on and off. Apple and Facebook do not allow turning it on or off .

Any photos you store on your Mac or iPhone or uploaded to Facebook, company algorithms scan faces.

Facebook intends to use this data for the safety of its users. For example, if someone uses your photo, Facebook will automatically notify you, and of course you can report the photo or profile.

This feature is obviously one of the good uses of the feature. But if you think about how much data Facebook has from a single person, the unhindered use of the function is quite annoying.
