How to Disable Copilot from my Windows 11 PC?

Question

After updating my Windows 10 laptop I don't have a fully working trackpad as Copilot is interfering with it, so I really need to find a way to remove or disable it?

Nearly every other Windows update breaks something on either my laptop or my gaming PCs, it's gotten so bad I have to keep disabling Windows updates, which I have made posts about before, like on an update where it destroyed multiple expensive M.2 SSDs, and now this.

This time it's really worrying as I'm disabled and use my laptop to order my medication which I could die without and now it's going to be very hard to order with the trackpad not working properly, and the space bar only sometimes works etc.

Why not ask if we want it first? and I have never used the taskbar search, and don't know anyone else that does also.
