Windows 10: I want Copilot gone!

I did an update this morning on my Windows 10 laptop and some stupid AI **** called Copilot got installed. I do NOT want AI in my computer. It is invasive and I have privacy concerns about this stuff. How do I permanently uninstall this garbage from my computer? I do not consent to having AI installed in my computer. If it's not possible to remove it this laptop is getting trashed and my next one WON'T have Windows. And I want it removed, not disabled. Please tell me how to remove it.

:)

 

None of the methods to disable Copilot work, can't even hide it

I suggest you post your question in the tutorial thread to find out if Brink or the other tutorial participants can help you Enable or Disable Copilot - TenForumsTutorials Best of luck, Denis

 

Why did the startup window get cleared?

I didn't missed any step, the list was gone and gone , even after using lot of programs the programs were not listed in that list.

 

What is Copilot and How did it get on my PC?
