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

    I went through the same process today, and even having the technician change everything to Classic version WITHOUT Copilot and being ensured it was not fixed......... I find that this IS NOT THE CASE!!!!!! that is from the time I changed to subscription at about 10.45am this morning till 15.35 this afternoon and it is STILL on copilot. We are being FORCED into AI whether we want it or not!

    We need to go back to Windows 10. I was upset when I saw that it had been installed onto my new laptop!

    I'm having teh same problem. Had a technician go through all the motions and saying it should now be fine, BUT it still opens with Copilot. The most frustrating of it is that it just installed without my permission some weeks/months ago and suddenly things changed. I absolutely hate it, and of course, Microsoft don't actually care to fix the problem as they know most won't go elsewhere due to not being able to use Office elsewhere without much disruption and change!

    have Just been offered a change from Copilot version to Classic version without copilot by the Us Helpline. Was advised that he could arrange it for me without difficulty in Australia as it is already available in UK. I declined and got him to just get rid of a lot of problems with account and connecting the 5 devices covered in the exorbitant renewal fee of $159.

    Working on the basis that we are going to be forced to use it one way or another whether we like it or not.
