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?

    After starting this topic a month ago, it looks like it's resolved, at least for me. I'm not sure whether this was because of an update or whether Microsoft actually LISTENED to our complaints, but I no longer see the "Try Draft with Copilot" thing in any messages I compose or reply to using my web-based Hotmail.

    the question is WHY isn't there an option in the web version of Outlook to turn Copilot off.

    I understand that you are only responding with the facts but I will tell you that this is reprehensible. Microsoft assumes that I am too ignorant to write my own emails and that I need help. That is so damn insulting. I am beginning to hate Microsoft with all my heart and soul. This is a great way to throw away good will. I am kinda stuck with this now sucky email app, but I promise that I will do everything in my power going forward to never purchase new software from Microsoft and I will encourage everyone that I can to do the same.

    My MS subscription renews in a few months.

    Either I have the option to turn off Co-Pilot from everything or I'm out.
