How do I get Copilot off my Android phone? I didn't want Copilot taking over my phone screen and DEMANDING that I login to Microsoft Copilot AI to continue using my phone. I use Excel on my phone, Microsoft 365 installed itself without permission like a virus and now I have to fight for control of my phone every time someone sends me a spreadsheet. Copilot doesn't exist as an app that can be disabled. It has no control panels or switches. It's a malicious unwanted program. By definition a malware.

    I've gone one better and cancelled my 365 Subscription altogether.

    I've found free alternative products for everything Microsoft offers.

    If i really need to use a MS product I use the free online version.

    Good Job Microsoft Marketing Team

    Changing from Microsoft 365 Family to Microsoft 365 Family Classic

    Go to Microsoft Account, in "Subscriptions", select ""Manage"

    Next screen "Switch Plan"

    Select "Current Plan"

    Next screen "Cancel Microsoft 365 Family" click on "Switch plan" at Microsoft 365 Family Classic

    Confirm your new subscription - click [Buy]

    Verifying mastercard and Confirm with your mobile

    Message:

    "You are playing 0.00 Eur using the card ending with NNNN" [Continue]

    Pop-up "Changing your Microsoft 365 Family plan"

    Next window:

    You switched to Microsoft 365 Family Classic

    Message:

    "

    Starting on [date], we’ll charge you € [amount] including estimated

    VAT every year You can continue to enjoy your Microsoft 365 Family

    My wife is from South Africa. All the students in her family are very poor and can't even afford the data to run microsoft products. The subscriptions may as well be a Rolls Royce to them, they are about as affordable.

    Good job on helping Africa Gates.

    The link you provided will only let you sign in with a work account. Can you show us where to login to disable co pilot if you have a personal account on your Samsung?

    I am retired after 36 years in corporate IT, cloud services and cyber security. Everything I ever did was windows based (since Win95!). I'm used to the OS. But this push to cloud and AI... IMHO is unnecessary. Not for a retiree whose whole IT world is contained to a laptop in a bedroom in a home. I'm a functional adult, perfectly capable of writing my own Emails and letters, of critically thinking through my own research, and I have enough external storage devices that keeping my **** on a "Cloud" is pointless.

    I am going to keep with Thunderbird. I really like Mozilla - I use Firefox because I can install extensions that block all the **** that Edge allows. Thunderbird feels really, intrinsically basic - and it is all that I really need, but thanks for the pointer! Noted.

    My technological life right now is contained to a Microsoft Surface laptop. In a past life, I actually was quite proficient with Unbutu (Linux), and that OS will be my fallback when MS decides that my current PC needs to be replaced.
