Typical Microsoft.
Constantly overengineering everything. Including how to get rid of illegal software.
Yes. I said illegal.
I didn't want Gen AI forced upon me. I shouldn't have to jump through all these hoops to say "I don't want to be involved with stolen information." It's not even good.
My next computer will be Linux based. I think, after what, newrly 40 years, it's time to finally divorce from Microsoft. And my Android needs an exorcism after this.
Hello there, As a Microsoft Technical Advisor I apologise for any issues Copilot may be causing on your android and below will list some solutions which should possibly help solve this issue. 1)Delete your copilot from Microsoft 365 and send a direct deletion request to Microsoft to do this follow the steps below; 1.1) Sign into your my account portal with your work or school account at https://myaccount.microsoft.com/ 1.2) Navigate to settings and privacy -> Privacy -> 1.3) Under the 'Data options' navigate to copilot interaction history and select 'Delete' These steps was referenced from the following source and for further clarification on this visit: https://support.microsoft.com/office/76de8afa-5eaf-43b0-bda8-0076d6e0390f If this solution doesn't solve it, 2)Check Admin Settings; 2.1)On your android go to settings 2,2)Look for "Security" or "Lock screen and security" options. 2.3)Find and tap on "Device administrators" or a similar option. 2.4) Check if Copilot or any related Microsoft services are listed here with admin privileges, and uncheck the box next to copilot to revoke it's permissions Alternatively also filter the settings search bar to 'Permissions' and this should hopefully filter to the apps that have admin permissions which Copilot seems to have. 3) Go to settings -> General-> Try to find CoPilot and remove all the relevant options to disable it. I hope the solutions and information provided above helps you come to a solution should you have anymore concerns do not hesitate to contact me. Thanks, Parth Patel.
