    Isn’t Copilot integrated with the Windows taskbar search?

    I think the sole reason Copilot is used at all is because they’ve forced it in applications it has no place in, and requires it remain on by default.

      I have never liked having a search box in the taskbar. My taskbar is for pinned programs, open programs, volume, Ethernet/wifi, and a clock. Nothing more.

      You can remove copilot from windows 11 completely now…with an outside program.

        I love having a search box on my taskbar. I want it to search my PC for installed apps and files and nothing else. I certainly don’t want to do a fucking Bing search for “Settings”

          It seems like a waste of space on the taskbar, to me

          In the Start Menu/Finder/KRunner/wofi I want it to search, but I don’t need the text input box visible at all times taking space

      The original Copilot is GitHub Copilot which is a coding assistant and it’s very popular and useful for developers. I think most of the paying copilot customers and usage are coming from there.
