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?

Hi guys,
Not sure if this is a "fix" but when I try to cancel the annual subscription ($179?), it prompted me to change my subscription to a different "LOWER COST WITHOUT AI - Microsoft 365 Family Classic AU$139.00/year". Changes won't take effect till March 2025 though... fingers crossed for now.

Couldn't agree more!
I'm concluding after reading all this unsolicited copilot garbage infecting my computer that the best way to get rid of copilot is to get rid out outlook.
Microsoft is obviously is too high and mighty to listen to its customers.
I got the message: loud and clear.
You don't need AI to figure it out.
Seriously? I subscribe to Microsoft 365, but sometimes like to use email on the web. It's almost impossible to use with "Try Draft with Copilot" populating every single line of each message I write.
This is *not* a feature. As so many in this thread (and elsewhere) have said, please pass along feedback so that users can turn this off.
Glad to see I'm not the only one who thinks this unwanted 'draft with Co-pilot' is totally unacceptable. I would also add the banner which appears across the top of EVERY email offering a 'Summary by Copilot' to the list of unwanted junk - I don't need or want that either.
I am absolutely sick of the way Microsoft behaves now. They've just hiked the monthly subscription charge, apparently to pay for all this new functionality which nobody asked for and most people don't want. As if that wasn't annoying enough, they make it impossible to turn off all this useless junk which increasingly gets in the way of actually doing anything.
What we really need is a simple option in the subscription settings to 'turn off all Copilot options and functionality'. I simply don't want it - it is utter dross and has now reached the point of being so intrusive that it's actively geting in the way. At least with business accounts it's possible to turn off some of this, albeit often with a lot of hassle (I am a system admin so have to deal with this too), but for home subscriptions there is seemingly no ability to control anything much.
I am seriously considering moving to another email provider and installing Libre Office / Thunderbird as it seems to be the only way to avoid being bombarded with whatever junk Microsoft wants to force on us this week.
