I have just noticed that I now have a Copilot dropdown above the Ribbon on the right hand side in my Outlook Classic 2019 - I DO NOT WANT THIS RUBBISH IN MY OFFICE APPLICATIONS!!!!

How many more times are Microsoft going to thrust these stupid ideas down our throats 🤬

What I need to know is how to remove it.....Please someone help as there are no details on the internet, unless you are a 365 user, which I'm not

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me

    I too was amazed that they fixed something for the little guy, My first time seeing anything like this in 30 years of microsoft. (mcse nt40) Then read the fine print on the patch. this fix wasnt for us it was for the government cloud payers. I was government cloud and that is the only reason microsoft even talked to us, we were paying the big bucks. Microsoft knows you dont want it, but tough! You will get what they want you to get like it or not. That is how this works..still.

    If you are still seeing this issue, please let me know what build is your Outlook (File, Office Account, under About Outlook)? I'm testing to see if I can repro so I can get this escalated to the Outlook Team.
