Windows 10: Copilot termination button -- has anyone used this?

I'm using a 2-year old laptop with Windows 11 Pro. One of the updates installed the Copilot feature. In looking for a way to get around it, I downloaded Firefox and am using that browser, which doesn't seem to use it. But I also found Copilot in my Settings - Apps - Installed Apps, and when I click on the three dots on the right of its listing, there's a "Terminate" button under Advanced Options when you scroll down.Has anyone used this to deactivate Copilot on their system? Does anyone know what it does? There's no info offered on what it will do or if it's reversible, should it ever need to

Why isn’t copilot button working

I've tried everything you suggested but the Copilot button is still not responding. This issue started to occur after I installed the update Build 23601 and opened and closed the copilot pane a few times. (After installing the update Copilot is working but after using copilot a few times it stopped opening.) Also, there is no Copilot task in the task manager, just a "Microsoft Edge Copilot pane renderer." I closed that task, and after clicking on the Copilot button again, the task does not reappear.

 

Why isn’t copilot button working

Dear William,

Thank you so much for your reply!

I apologize for the late response and regret to hear that the Copilot button is still unresponsive. Please try the steps below:

- Press Windows key + R to open the Run box.

- Enter microsoft-edge://?ux=copilot&tcp=1&source=taskbar and press Enter to open the Copilot pane.

- If the Copilot pane opens, click the Copilot button to check functionality.

- If Copilot doesn't open, reset Microsoft Edge settings:

a. Open Edge, click three dots in the top right.

b. Go to Settings and click Reset Settings.

- Restart your computer and test if the Copilot button works as expected.

Warm Regards,

Arif
