Microsoft Copilot | Windows Copilot | Copilot+ PC
A PC equipped with advanced AI capabilities and Windows Copilot integration
It's been a week, is there no official response from Microsoft about how to remove the application?
How do I permanently delete Copilot from Windows 11?

I just want to be able to use my computer. I don't care about using AI, I can get to it if I want to use it. How do I just get rid of it completely? It keeps popping up randomly, every time there's an update it wants me to log in and buy something. I just want to use my computer as a computer, this is really aggravating

- IF the Copilot Store app is installed on a machine > Settings/Apps/Installed apps. There in search type Copilot, then click the ellipsis and hit UNinstall.
- In Edge:
Shut OFF the Copilot toggles. > Settings, hit the ellipsis or Alt+F, scroll down the gear Settings. In search type Copilot.

I HATE BEING CONTROLLED BY SOFTWARE
ALL AMERICANS HATE BEING CONTROLLED BY ANTTHING
AI IS STILL IN ITS INFANCY & THEREFORE IS INCAPABLE OF REPLACING MT BRAIN AND FOR SURE IT CANNOT REPLACE MY 84 YEARS OF LIFE EXPERIENCE
I AM ALREADY A GOOD WRITER. I DO NOT NEED OR WANT AI STUFF.

If you mean Store copilot > Settings/Installed apps, find copilot, hit the ellipsis and UNINSTALL
If you mean in Edge > Settings, find Copilot and shut 2 toggles off. Done.
It's optional.

Mira aquí lo desinstalaras copilot completamente. y además impedirás que se vuelva a instalar.

2026-01-27T02:14:14.66+00:00 Answer has 3 parts:
- Don't install the Store Copilot app / or UNinstall it, if you, already, have it.
- Shut off, toggle OFF, the copilot icon showing on the Edge toolbar; now, Edge will be copilot-free.
- Anywhere you see copilot, do not click on it. In other words, don't like copilot, don't use it.
