Is there some way to completely uninstall Co-pilot?

Just booted up.

Saw new Co-pilot preview button on the far right end of the task bar.
Easily figured out how not to display it.

Next: Is there some way to completely uninstall Co-pilot? (preview or whatever else is coming) ?

Thank you.

This works for me:

Completely Disable and Remove Copilot in Windows 11 Tutorial | Windows 11 Forum...

Unfortunately, this tutorial only disables Copilot so it doesn't show up.

Thank you.

There is currently no way to completely uninstall Copilot.

Kind regards,

I'll go with disabling it via the registry file at your link to the 11 forum.
Also downloading the undo file just in case.

Thank you.

It's part of the operating system and attempting to totally remove it will likely break things and would likely cause issue with installation of cumulative updates/ MS Edge updates.

So it's best to disable it.

As long as I never see it again, I'm good.

Best to just get used to the idea that if you install Windows, you relinquish your rights to your computer.

Reinstall your Windows 10, do not connect to the internet. Remove all instances of "auto-update" and "edge update" from File Explorer and Regedit, then delete the auto-update task from Task Scheduler. Now, connect to the internet. Your Edge will be returned to its pre-co-pilot state and Microsoft will be unable to change it unexpectedly.
