How do I delete all trace of Microsoft Copilot from my system?

Here's my problem. I do medical work. I am trying to be HIPAA compliant because, well, it is the law. I now have a program, app, OS feature, whatever you want to call it accessing private information and using it without my knowledge. Put simply, I don't care what is "popular," I need to know my system is secure. If it was installed without my knowledge, how can I be certain that it is not still running without my knowledge? What is it accessing? Where is that information being sent? Who is accountable when a full blown HIPAA violation occurs? Is it me because I "allowed" it or is it Microsoft because they installed an item with far too much access to both my system and the internet and it started stealing information?

well if AI is going to be forced a pond us Ill just quit using computers completely including smart phone as I really can live with out a phone no problem, people need to start boycotting all things using AI if enough people do this they will be forced to stop pushing this **** on us and no I refuse to even give it a chance and try it out

>If Copilot was an application, it could be uninstalled, like you uninstall any other application. But artificial intelligence, here in the form of Copilot, is now part of the operating system.

Chien Sage, you are wrong, Copilot is the same application as all the others (and it installed itself a year after the system was installed, without my knowledge or permission), but Microsoft does not allow me to remove it :(

how does that leather taste 6 inches down your throat, bootlicker
