I'm a dinosaur who still uses Hotmail.com via web-based Outlook.com. Now every time I reply to a message, I get a ""Try Draft with Copilot" message/link in it. I never want to use Copilot for anything, but this won't go away. How can I turn permanently off this any other Copliot promot in Outlook?

    I don't see the option to turn off Copiot. Can you post a screen shot.?

    Some progress! When I go to write email on outlook.com, there is now a box with an option to turn off Copilot. When I tick that box, I no longer get the draft-with-copilot link on every line.

    I am still on track to renew my subscription to "Classic" to avoid paying for this - and to hopefully have it disappear from all my Microsoft apps. I have no objection to AI and use other tools all the time. But I have been completely put off by Microsoft's attempts to jam this down people's throats, including the sneaky subscription "upgrade." At this point, I want nothing at all to do with Copilot.

    I have the same problem and I subscribe to Microsoft 365. The stupid prompt appears both when I use the Web version live.outlook.com or when I use the version in Microsoft 365, or when I use the version on my iPhone and my iPad, which is the one I use most frequently. It’s insane and unnecessary. Microsoft wasted its money on this piece of garbage.

    this block code, is this available on macos/safari?

    Outlook has also edited my messages after I hit send, and offered my sexual services for money.

    This never happened before Copilot.. I am very upset.

    I'm still getting the incredibly annoying "Try Drafting with Co-Pilot" on every line when I use the Android Outlook email app. Any suggestions on how to rid myself of that would be appreciated. I did change to "Classic," but my subscription doesn't renew until June.
