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?

    O Thank You MSFT.

    I was in tears yesterday because some pulldown prompt and copilot blocked in message reply notes and I could not read the original email. So, very frustrating. So, it was blocking incoming and outgoing emails.

    Just changed settings to Off.

    I hope your fans help you test that thing. I'm not sure it's good.

    I do like it in the search engine.... But completely different function.

    Thank you MSFT.

    Changed for me. The copilot button on the right-side of the toolbar now has a settings option - within this, there is the ability to turn copilot off. Do that, and try writing a new email, and all of the copilot nonsense has gone completely.

    Thank you MikeOS2001. It worked for me.
