TBH I have a mixed feeling about this.

    I did this the moment they dropped copilot on my taskbar without any prompting. It was my gaming machine so it took a little getting used to, but it’s been solid ever since.

    I did not ask for an AI chatbot in my os. I don’t want an AI chatbot in my os.

      You could go to Settings -> Personalization -> Taskbar and turn the Copilot button off. Or you could install a whole new OS to accomplish that, I guess. Whichever is simpler.

        I over reacted and took the Linux route. It wasn’t just one thing that prompted the change, but copilot was the icing on the cake.

        I’ve been unhappy with windows for a few years, but it’s always been easier to ignore it and continue on. Something in me must have snapped about the same time a few guys at work were talking about gaming on Linux. Worked out well for me, might not work best for everyone.

          I don’t think it’s an overreaction - you have a line, and when it was crossed you switched.
