Windows 10: I want Copilot+ removed from my machine.

I recently upgraded to Windows 11 because of your prompt which threatened the end of maintenance for Windows 10, and the associated security risks. I was unaware that Windows 11 mandatorily included your officially licensed spyware, Copilot+. I do not consent to having you record my machine's every action and demand it be removed. Any instructions I have independently found to do so are ineffective, which is why I'm writing you now. If it's the case that only way to do this is by going back to Windows 10, I'd prefer that.

Copilot randomly got removed from taskbar options.

Hello,

I can understand how frustrating it is when an essential feature like copilot disappears unexpectedly.

Here are few steps to fix this issue.

1. Open Settings.
   
   Click on Personalization.
   
   In Taskbar, check if the Copilot toggle is off. If so, turn it on.
   
2. If Group Policy Editor isn’t working, try these steps:
   
   • Press Win + R, and enter gpedit.msc.
     
   • Navigate to User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Start Menu and Taskbar.
     
   • Look for any policies related to Copilot and ensure they’re not disabled.
     

If the problem persists, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Thank you.

Have a great day!
