Set maximum duration for storing snapshots used by Recall

This policy setting allows you to control the maximum amount of time (in days) that Windows saves snapshots for Recall. When the policy is enabled, you can configure the maximum storage duration to be 30, 60, 90, or 180 days. When this policy is not configured, the maximum storage duration is 90 days unless the current user specifies a different value. If both maximum storage duration and maximum storage space are set for Recall, then snapshots are deleted when the first maximum is reached. Important: This setting applies to Enterprise and Education client SKUs only.
