- 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.
Microsoft accidentally made windows better in an update for the first time in years 😂
Please don’t fix it; we’re ok living with this bug.
Thanks, 98% of your users
Keep pushing accidents like that and I might actually give 11 a try.
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
Removing the copilot was a happy accident
in an unrelated note, windows speed is now tripled with the latest update.
Finally, a good windows update!
“… and nothing of value was lost.”
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.
Classic Microsoft. You are really just being a guest in your own computer.
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
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
Too late. I already jumped ship because of Copilot’s “Recall”, and I’m not interested in going through a round of partitioning the hard drive and installing a new OS so soon.
I am cool with simply having a cpu without the “AI” cores
I’d prefer AI cores, just like I prefer HW based AES instructions: present and up to my discretion as to how I choose to use them, or not.
If it’s a choice between AI-accelerated cores and nothing, sure, but that silicon space could have been used for AVX-512 or a bigger cache instead.
