How to disable or remove Copilot from Word (there is a solution - check 2nd edit)

Are you real or are you employed by Microsoft. Read the comments. It may deliver all of the features you mention above BUT there are users out there who do not want these features and Microsoft MUST give users the ability to disable this feature. Personally I do NOT trust Microsoft. What is this feature really doing behind the scenes? Is it secretly recording all we are doing? Google and Facebook are known for allowing false information to be posted. So I am asking where is Copilot sourcing the information it wants to share with us to help us? Sorry mate you are on a different planet. Microsoft MUST implement a way to disable this feature ASAP.

Sujon, have you read All the comments posted on this topic.

If you had, you would have read the many negative comments on Copilot regarding Editing, Proofreading, from literary writers and those in the education system. Also mentioned in the comments is Plagiarism, as you do not know where Copilot has sourced its content from.

If yourself, and others use Copilot, that's fine, but allow others who not want Copilot the ability to either turn it off or better, remove it from Office 365.

Good advice thank you

Don't overlook the power of Google Sheets if you are replacing your Excel files. From my experience Google Sheets handles the tricky stuff a lot better.

I am finding Ubuntu 24.04 a pleasure to use, I am on top of it after only a few days and all ties with Microsoft are now severed. Feels liberating after all the trashy behaviour Microsoft has displayed in recent years. Microsoft's glory days were Windows 7 and Windows 10. Whomever they have pulling the levers now has lost touch with the customer base and probably doesn't care as long as their bonuses keep flowing. I am guessing many have walked away and I have.
