I concur that Co Pilot is not a part of the Windows Operating System at all. Microsoft is force feeding this upon all users if you want to continue to stay on their platform. It is a shame that Microsoft has taken this most unfortunate stance... All many of us want is a simple easy to use and reliable platform. Microsoft simply does not care as they have their own ulterior motives - Which by the way they will not even state what their motives are? Obviously it revolves around their own profits and desire to control our lives... I am currently looking for other options...
How do I remove all Copilot and AI related stuff from Windows 11?
I want to remove Copilot from Windows 11. Completely. I dont want it disabled so it conveniently comes back with the next update. I want it gone. I am tired of microsoft telling me what I want on the machine I own.
Windows for home | Windows 11 | Settings

2025-03-07T15:35:41+00:00 I couldn't agree more. How dare they just add something to my system without asking! It is positively outrageous. I am undertaking a PhD at one of the Russell Group universities in England. My thesis requirements specifically state, quite rightly, that all the research and writing must be entirely without AI and must be completely the student's own work to avoid disqualification. This is six years of work.... Do these idiots ever consider aspects such as this?

The "agent" apparently operates from a third world call center, and after hours of playing mindlessly with my computer declares the problem solved, for instance remove Copilot. Nothing is solved, but he/she declares case solved and a great success. Microsoft is abusing its monopolistic position. Disgusting. Very American.
