- A bug in the most recent Windows 11 update removes Copilot from systems entirely.
- Microsoft is currently working on a fix but those who need the app can simply redownload and install it from the Windows Store.
- The update also introduced a bug for Roblox players on Arm hardware.
Keep pushing accidents like that and I might actually give 11 a try.
in an unrelated note, windows speed is now tripled with the latest update.
Removing the copilot was a happy accident
Finally, a good windows update!
Microsoft accidentally made windows better in an update for the first time in years 😂
“… and nothing of value was lost.”
"But imagine that in a decade maximum, your computer would have full conscience and be like Torment Nexus from the hit novel series “Don’t Build the Torment Nexus”.
Update KB5053598 is a very simple update that includes “miscellaneous security improvements to internal OS functionality”
Removing Copilot wasn’t unintentional at all. They said so right there in the release notes.
i believe you’re on to something, with the thought that removing it wasn’t unintentional…
i am willing to bet it was deliberate, but as a way to catch more users who refuse to upgrade from Win10 BECAUSE of Copilot. once they get more users to adopt, they simply put it back in, in one of their updates
I think they just made a release without it (for EU or stuff) and either forgot to turn in back on for regular releases, or it didn’t because of a bug.
that makes more sense than my dumb conspiracy idea!
Oh no! Anyway…
Am I the only one who actually likes copilot? I don’t know, it’s helped me a ton.
And also I’m a linux daily driver. I think I’m a very rare breed who loves and prefers Linux but doesn’t hate windows.
I use Github Copilot. I like it a lot. What I don’t like is if it were forced right into my butthole.
You’re not allowed to like anything Microsoft does on here.
Clearly lol. It’s like fucking reddit
Microsoft Accidentally Gives Customers Exactly What They’ve Been Asking For, Promises to Fix It Quickly
Will be hard to argue that it cannot be removed, like they did with internet exploder…
I uninstalled copilot and that bitch reinstalled itself.
Reminds me of “you are being rescued. Please do not resist”
Classic Microsoft. You are really just being a guest in your own computer.
Glad to be moving to Linux this year, wiping the last of my Windows-based installations out of my house.
I really want to do this but I can’t, is creative cloud running on linux?
Not to my knowledge, no*. Though it’s been a while since I looked into it.
* Outside of running them inside a Windows VM on Linux, but that has its own issues. Especially if you use any of the CC apps that need GPU acceleration. It can definitely be done, but I’d argue most people are not going to want to go through the effort and rather just use Windows directly.
Oh no, what are those kids going to do on the school issued Chromebooks.
This is the best Windows Update in ages
Honestly this sounds like a veteran MS dev who wanted to ensure he had a good ISO build of windows to install without AI shit down the line after he retired. Props to whatever MS dev (or devs) made this happen
That’s a feature Microsoft. Start removing more crap and you might have an actual OS and not just a complicated slow overpriced billboard.
Recall next, please
