    Answer has 3 parts:

    1. Don't install the Store Copilot app / or UNinstall it, if you, already, have it.
    2. Shut off, toggle OFF, the copilot icon showing on the Edge toolbar; now, Edge will be copilot-free.
    3. Anywhere you see copilot, do not click on it. In other words, don't like copilot, don't use it.

    To delete the Microsoft Copilot app from your computer, you can follow these steps:

    1. For Enterprise Users:
      • Go to Settings > Apps > Installed Apps.
      • Find the Copilot app, click on the three dots next to it, and select Uninstall.
    2. For IT Administrators:
      • You can prevent installation or remove the Copilot app using AppLocker policy.
      • Configure the AppLocker policy before installing Windows updates to control which apps users can run.
      • You can also uninstall it using the Visual Studio Installer if it's integrated into Visual Studio.

    If you need to uninstall Copilot from SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS), you can do so via the Visual Studio Installer by selecting Modify on the SSMS installation and unchecking AI Assistance.

    These methods should help you remove Copilot from your system.
