I am using a Macbook Air, last week I tried the free trial of the copilot, but since I don't find it helpful, and even my word keeps on lagging, now I want to disable the copilot.

I have already tried to uninstall and reinstall Microsoft 365, and several tips on the internet, but none of them is working. The copilot is still there. and I find it so annoying.

Can someone help me to show me the way to disable the copilot, please?

Thank you!

    This does not work for me. Copilot turned up with the latest update, and I cannot get rid of it. There is no option to disable it on the "right side of the page". Where can I find this please? Copilot is seriously annoying.

    I have exactly the same problem and am equally frustrated. I managed to remove the icon from the ribbon (along with the Editor icon, which I can access another way). I have sent a very firmly worded feedback message to Microsoft demanding that they remove this rubbish and encourage you all to do the same.

    I'm having the issue of not being able to deactive copilot in MS Word. There are control or deactivation options showing in my Microsoft account, and nothing MS word preferences that I can find.

    I don't want AI to write my documents or make suggestions, I want to write my documents. I need to remove this software from word or be able to deactivate it.

    I don't want copilot or AI making suggestions while I work.
