We live in a time when practically any new development is related to artificial intelligence, but there may be certain reasons why a person wants to move away from this field of technology a little and use their operating system as before.
If you have recently updated Windows 10 and Windows 11, you will see that Copilotthe assistant artificial intelligence Of those from Redmond, it is increasingly present in the operating system and perhaps you are not liking it as much.
The users of Windows 10 They do not stop trying to find some way to literally get rid of Copilot from the operating system, but we have bad news for you, because in principle it is not possible.
Microsoft clarifies that “although we do not currently support uninstalling Copilot, you can right-click on the Copilot icon and unpin it so that it no longer always appears in the taskbar,” the company explains.
That is, you cannot uninstall Copilot from Windows 10 at the moment, but you can hide it from the taskbaralthough that’s probably not what you’re looking for.
But at a more computer administration level, you can end up deleting it, but to do so you need to disable it using the local group policy editor or the registry editor.
The Local group policy editor is not available in Windows Home, so you might end up using the registry editor method. In any case, if you have a Windows 10 Pro version you will be able to use either of the two methods.
Although it is recommended that you leave Copilot installed in the operating system, because it can end up making your life easier, it is understandable that certain people may feel insecure with this type of technological advances, especially if they think about their privacy.
