Removing Copilot

Removing Copilot. Seems it its impossible to remove this app from the computer I BOUGHT.

I asked Copilot how to remove it from MY computer.

Here is what it told me: "If you want to completely remove Microsoft 365 Copilot from your computer, you will need to uninstall the Microsoft 365 applications that include Copilot features. Here are the general steps to uninstall Microsoft 365 applications: Open Control Panel: You can do this by searching for "Control Panel" in the Start menu. Go to Programs and Features: In the Control Panel, click on "Programs" and then "Programs and Features." Find Microsoft 365: Look for "Microsoft 365" or "Office 365" in the list of installed programs. Uninstall: Select the Microsoft 365 application and click on "Uninstall." Follow the prompts to complete the uninstallation process. Please note that uninstalling Microsoft 365 will remove all associated applications, including Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and others. If you only want to disable Copilot features, you might want to check the settings within each application to see if there is an option to turn off Copilot. If you need further assistance, feel free to ask!"

This why, by the end of the year, I will no longer have any Microsoft products or software.

BTW, even this form page is poorly designed and not user friendly.

    Thank for this. I have been trying to find an easy way to do this for 3 months now. I like Copilot as a separate, stand alone feature, but it is insulting when the assumption is that I cannot write a coherent sentence or paragraph without help. It pisses me off no end. I am free of it now, and happier.

    I don't want it disabled, I want it gone.
    I told it to uninstall from both Windows and Microsoft 365, yet here it is.
    I want it gone, and I do not want Microsoft putting it back in every time they do an update.

    If I ever reach a point where I think it is useful, I will install it my damned self.

    Yes, Yes, Yes.

    Next, they need to kill Edge and Bing.
