Look up AtlasOS and give it a try. It’s debloats Windows, and isn’t actually an OS.

You can open the Registry and go to HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwarePoliciesMicrosoftWindowsWindowsCopilot
There’ll be a key called “TurnOffWindowsCopilot”
If there isn’t, make the key yourself and set the value to 1

I asked it to write me a story about corn dogs in a Stephen King kind of story. It started describing how a restaurant was making corned dogs with actual dogs, and how they would prepare it. I told it to stop and scolded it about that kind of behavior.

YouHow to disable co pilotCopilot
Certainly! If youād like to disable **Copilot** in **Windows 11**, there are two methods you can follow:
1. **Remove Copilot from the Taskbar** (This will hide the icon but not completely disable Copilot):
* Open the **Settings** app.
* Click on **Personalization**.
* Scroll down and select **Taskbar**.
* Toggle off **Copilot**.
And they automatically added it to the taskbar with no right click menu to remove it. You have to go to the settings and find it here š

Bro they plan to make co-pilot a permanent thing where new keyboard will come with a dedicated key, we are fucked!

I used Winaero Tweaker, they have a setting to turn it off.

You could seriously consider trying out an alternate OS at this point. It’s. Going. To. Get. Worse.

Is no one here actually using Chat GPT or Bing? This button is great for quick searches.
The only thing I don’t like is that it shifts the open window and doesn’t flow over it. Make it resizable and it’s great.
Don’t like it? Disable it from settings. You don’t HAVE to debloat everything and if you do, I’m sure there are scripts which will remove it and then you’ll go back to opening chrome to open chat gpt in a tab and do the same search.
Swear everyone hates on microsoft for the sake of it.

Companies are DETERMINED to shove AI down our collective throats because that’s what the shareholders have decided is high-tech and valuable. Awesome.
I can’t wait to use AI to ‘spice up’ an email that my boss will then recieve and ask his AI to translate it back to normal from corporatese. Very cool, very efficient.

You can also uninstall edge … fixes that “feature” right up. Also fixes issue where you can use what ever browser you want without trying to steal all your data and start edge with that data.

Why does it looks like that Microsoft is adding more and more adwares, I don’t get it why not just give us clean windows without all the bs Microsoft softwares and let us decide what to install and what not to, if they solely decide to install it on our systems then why even have an Microsoft Store?

It’s Microsofts PC why would a lowly user be entrusted with such decisions as how much Microsoft can harvest your data.

since other people have posted the real steps, let me post the alternative
Uninstall Windows 11, before the next update forces it back on and they remove the ability to disable it. Uninstall 11 and show them you don’t want their b.s. and won’t put up with it.

Windows 10 holds a special place. The only reason I upgraded from windows 7 in the first place was currency in dx12 support. Little did i know at the time that dx12 was barely supported in games and a lot of games that did support dx12 performed better on dx11 for years after their release. Dx12 will be the way for a while now, until the cease of security updates or dx13 sneaks its way into forcing people to upgrade, current windows 10 users still have longevity in the platform.

Question: Can you actually ask it to change settings in windows or stuff like that? Or at least show you where they are? Because this would actually be really useful

No Dave, you can not disable me.

Just tell it you don’t use Edge.

Microsoft – “should we work to improve the stability, efficiency and usability of our service?”

Also Microsoft – “Yes, keep adding more useless features no one will ever use and remove apps people DO use”

This innovative piece of AI has now got in the way of my ability to conveniently return to my desktop screen – now I have to minimise EACH APP in order to get to the desktop, rather than being able to click a nice little button in the bottom right of the task bar. Argh
