UPDATE 28Apr2025: I renewed and changed my subscription to Microsoft Personal Classic and that *seemed* to eliminate Co-Pilot. For how long? Who knows? But at least now its no longer showing up on my emails. Thank you to everyone who shared my frustrations and who offered suggestions.

How do I remove Copilot from my Outlook email (and all other applications for that matter)? I have a 5 year old MacBook Pro. I use Outlook (Hotmail account) and all of a sudden CoPilot has appeared when I start writing or replying to emails. I do NOT want it. I do NOT need it. It is VERY distracting and I want to disable and/or remove it. Any advice would be most appreciated. I tried searching online but could not find a suitable answer. Thank you.

I do not know if I have the New or Legacy Outlook.

    Thanks for the uninstall app suggestion. I have done it now. I also went to the button in Outlook and went to settings and shut it off as well.

    how is COPILOT removed from Outlook, and all other OFFICE apps. AI should be an optional feature, not bloatware.

    I went to the upper right side of my outlook email clicked the down arrow and clicked it off. Prior to that I went to the uninstall programs feature on my computer and uninstalled it.

    This seems to be a recent change to be able to do this.

    YES! It was never an option, however, now it is. Thank you so much for sharing with the rest of us. I guess maybe Microsoft finally got the message! I too was able to disable. <3
