I have two computers, both Windows 10. One has a box so that I can disable Copilot. The other does not. How can I disable Copilot in the second computer?
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
I am not interested in Copilot and want to remove it from all platforms that I use, specifically my online Outlook application. I don't want it to offer a summary of emails received or draft replies for me. If I can't get it to go away, I think I'll go crazy. Unless I can cease to earn an income and stop using my computer altogether.
Hi WilliamBrown_64
Welcome to the Microsoft Community
I understand your problem. I cannot disable Copilot on the second computer.
Disable Copilot through Group Policy
Press Win + R, enter gpedit.msc, and then press Enter.
In the Group Policy Editor, expand the following paths:
User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Windows Copilot
In the right pane, double-click Turn off Windows Copilot.
Select Enabled, and then click OK to save the changes.
Close the Group Policy Editor and restart the computer to apply the changes.
Try to modify the IsUserEligible value in the registry to disable Copilot. Please follow these steps:
Press Win + R, enter regedit, and then press Enter.
Navigate to the registry key:
In the Registry Editor, navigate to the following path:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Shell\Copilot\BingChat
Modify the IsUserEligible value:
Find the IsUserEligible item in the right pane.
Double-click IsUserEligible and change its value data from 1 to 0.
Click OK to save the changes and close the Registry Editor.
Restart your computer to apply the changes.
