Artificial intelligence seems increasingly hard to avoid, but you still have options. Microsoft recently introduced Copilot in Windows 11, and it’s taken root in its new home on the taskbar. But if you want it to be unobtrusive, or perhaps disable it altogether, you can.
Disable Windows Copilot in Windows 11
Microsoft Copilot can be hidden by clicking a switch in your taskbar personalization settings. The quickest way to reach the settings is through the taskbar itself.
Click an empty area on the taskbar.
Select Taskbar Settings from the menu.
