How can I disable Copilot completely in my Outlook WEB interface?

Recently, I've started getting things like "Summary by Copilot" or "Try Draft with Copilot" inside my Outlook WEB interface.

I've searched the help pages and online, but could not find a way to completely disconnect Copilot from my email web interface. I don't want it to even scan my emails.

I feel like I've got AI pushed down my throat lately by everyone, and frankly, I really don't want it.

Thanks

    This solution is pointless if you're a couple of months into your subscription. The downgrade won't happen until renewal and Support can't force the downgrade. For me that's 6 months away and 6 months that I have to deal with this inconvenient, mandatory feature!

    BTW, for those curious, there are no refunds after the first month so cancelling altogether so you can signup a new subscription will cost you the remaining months on your current subscription in addition to the new subscription.

    At times I really HATE Microsoft... not that they care.

    Yes it is, "Operation Paperclip" resurrected. Please, if you are listening, we do not comply to your demands and will not pay $129 or $30 more for nuisance or parasitic applications, like throwing a wheelchair in front of healthy people and hoping that they will pay for the "convenience."

    This new AI is like the old horse and buggy. We don't want it or need it, especially on the WEB Outlook application.

    By the way, the option for having a subscription without AI is removed and not available once you finish cancellation.

    That's another punch in the right eye and hours to waste on the phone with customer service in India, just to get the service that we already paid for, continued after the old subscription expires, October 2025 in my case.

    They are not offering any option without AI next year, only in the pop up immediately after you request cancellation, need to contact my lawyer to go after these guys, a classic bait and switch operation.
