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.

    Outlook.com/Hotmail.com WEB EMAIL (NO installed apps)

    So, still no way to remove 5 lines asking if you want a summay, there are two buttons in other locations. The buttons are less annoying. Can you remove the 5 lines asking if I want a summary blocking my access to the actual email ? Is there a handicapped accessibility visual option to removed the added copilot options that require horizontal and vertical scrolling to view mail?

    Can you detail if all our mail i also in the AI by default, or only when we ask for summaries and assistance in writing?

    Is there anyway to change the suckup, offering sex, humiliating option in writing assistance to engineering brief non-social professional? I am not a sex worker: excessive compliments, desperation, thanking, and submission, are not acceptable. A quick question or comment should not be several times longer that the original email. Replies include the original email and do not need to be summarized or expanded upon, especially do not include the details of the email header. It's like teaching someone who handwrites mail, how to use email because the envelope might be lost. The envelope is not generally lost is email. The help in writing and summaries seem idiotic.

    Ok, which customer asked for "Copilot", a 'helping' app that gets in your way? Limited screen space lets use some space showing Copilot. Editing an email, lets add an icon that is right where you want to select.

    It seems that the Copilot is an excuse to read every email (like google) and store them in an AI drive. Do I have any privacy in Outlook anymore?

    Thanks for this! They are telling I need a new computer because Microsoft wants me to switch to Windows 11. This might take awhile to get used to, but there's nothing wrong with my computer. It does what I want to it to do just fine. Libre Office looks like a great alternative to MS. Thank you ever so much!!!!!

    Thank you, brother Human. It's much worse than this rogue, parasitic Microsoft AI "helper."

    THEIR plan is to rid humanity of our excessive baggage, the "useless eaters" and "useless breeders," Amalek, blaming the AI or computers for plausible deniability.

    They want us to blame everyone else, like the Muslims for 9-11, the Fourth of Ju-Ly, an Israeli Mossad Job and False Flag Operation.

    Everyone is to blame, including the AI, but them, the Jinn or Masterminds. Have you heard of T2: Judgment Day and Mr. 66-6, 99.9% population reduction?

    They don't need us humans anymore, and we are on the chopping block, not only the Christians. Our LAST PRESIDENT (1900) # 47's most famous last two words are, YOU'RE FIRED!
