    I only have one thing to add to this topic:

    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsCopilot]
    "TurnOffWindowsCopilot"=dword:00000001

    So long as I can disable it, thats all I care about. If people want to use it, go for it. But I dont want my personal desktop use to train an AI, or have it butt in like Cortana.

    I get how it could be useful in certain settings but I feel like its offering help for a problem that doesnt exist most of the time. Like, do most people need generative AI to complete everyday desktop tasks?

    Also this sounds like a potential privacy nightmare, even for Microsoft.
