    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.

      It only makes sense economically when they have as many people as possible using it and giving feedback.

      Where feedback can be concealed, like how your actions after requesting advice correlate with it, or whether you clarify your request and how many times.

      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.
