I am using a Macbook Air, last week I tried the free trial of the copilot, but since I don't find it helpful, and even my word keeps on lagging, now I want to disable the copilot.

I have already tried to uninstall and reinstall Microsoft 365, and several tips on the internet, but none of them is working. The copilot is still there. and I find it so annoying.

Can someone help me to show me the way to disable the copilot, please?

Thank you!

    I blew my stack totally last night.
    Opened my iPad to find... see attached.
    My Office Suite has been replaced by 365 Copilot.

    No notification. No authorization. Just added in an auto-update.
    There is no setting to disable or remove it.
    So Microsoft has now, without my permission, installed spyware on all of the machines I use.
    I have sent an e-mail to the Federal Minister responsible for Consumer Affairs.
    I suggest people stop chasing their tails complaining here and that they write to their government representatives about this.

    I totally get it. This was such a major breach of customer trust that they will find it hard to recover. Based on how this was so poorly handled, I don't trust Microsoft as far as I can throw them. And I never will trust this company to do the right thing. EVER.

    I don't want to disable it program by program because

    1. I don't trust it stay off
    2. Even if off I don't trust it not to scrape.

    I want this GONE as in an optional add in that people if they choose to feed the planet killing machine can do so, but the rest of us with a conscience and understanding of copyright law do not have to deal with it.

    My Microsoft Account shows Subscriptions (not Services and Subscriptions).

    There is no CoPilot link on the page. None.

    I don;t want OneDrive or CoPilot.

    Please get rid of them for me.

    Thank you.
