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?

    Totally agree with other responses. Each line I write I have this message to try draft with copilot. As if the banner 'summary with copilot' was not enough.

    Here is a solution that worked for me to remove that copilot summary banner and to remove the 'try with copilot' when writing a draft.

    Using Firefox and uBlock Origin -

    • In uBlock settings select the 'My filters' tab.
    • Add the following two lines -
    • outlook.live.com##.vaN5Q.wekzh.r7GQl
    • outlook.live.com##.fui-PopoverSurface

    Can CoPilot help us draft a complaint letter to Microsoft?

    Please, fix it so we can turn off this feature. Many of us pay for 365 and pay for the email service and we are not lab rats for you to get data about how well copilot works. We don't want to use it and it's intrusive to ask us if we want copilot with every word we type.

    For what it's worth many of us have nothing against AI assistants, and it's great that you are adding features, but you shouldn't get in the way of the normal user experience (like, ummm...typing an email) to sell a new feature. Offering it as a button is great, but these constant prompts are ridiculous and you know it.

    A lot of us are having a 'last straw' moment here. Many of us use hotmail because we like how it organizes our emails...but services like gmail don't have any of these petty annoyances and we will ultimately leave hotmail if you can't get it together.
