How to disable copilot in Windows 11 23H2?

There is a solution to keep Copilot out of your eyesight, it does not permanently remove or uninstall Copilot from your Windows 11 environment. Microsoft is persistent and Copilot is inevitable, not to mention the latest computers are equipped with a dedicated Copilot Key in the keyboard. Hence, it is up to us to get used to this feature, and also the field of AI is exponentially increasing, so it is better to get used to it. However, the simple solution is to disable copilot via Taskbar as you mentioned that Policy Editor didn't help. The following are the steps.

• Go to Windows Settings.
  
• Click on Personalization.
  
• Under Taskbar, you can find Copilot (preview)
  
• Toggle the switch to Off.
  
• In this way, Copilot can be kept out of sight.
  

I hope the same works for you.

 

how do i disable copilot completely in windows 10

I have Windows 10 installed because Windows 11 is absolute BS and was not intended to be user-friendly. All of the features that I enjoy, like the Start Menu with Tiles and Categories, are missing because Microsoft obviously doesn't care what users want.

That said, Visual Studio is not installed on my PC. I had to search for it and the only option I had was to download it so I can safely say that Copilot obviously "works", or assaults as someone else said, without the benefit of Visual Studio. So...not sure how the above steps can do a thing to take care of an invasive and irritating feature. BTW, I have Copilot toggled off and it still pops up most of the time. I hate it and I want it gone. What other suggestions might you have?
