Windows 10 only has a year of support: 12 months left to keep Copilot off your desktop or learn Linux

Sadly it is not about learning Linux but getting the software you use on a daily basis natively supported by the OS, that is why Linux is still not there for me yet.

On my Windows 11 machine I just uninstalled Copilot via the normal app uninstall process. Unless I'm misunderstanding, I don't think it's tied into the OS in any fundamental way. I assume most debloating scripts include the step anyway.

Kinda crap that it's installed by default though.

Just installed an update to 10 2 days ago to find that it had installed Copilot and put an icon for it on my taskbar. Stuff like this is why 10 will be my last version of Windows.

Can't wait to see what industries that handle sensitive data will do when Recall becomes an integrated part of Windows 11. They might have no choice but to migrate to Linux.

i just updated. https://www.startallback.com/ fixed most of my issues along with https://www.oo-software.com/en/shutup10

shame we have to do it, but even with Linux I have to do a bunch of stuff to make it more usable though at least it wont spy on you by default

The LSTC edition has a few more years in it... but I wouldn't do MASS in a GRAVE... ehr, I mean - fuck.

Look, just search for "MassGrave" on GitHub.

Copilot is not an issue, it's Recall that could send screenshots of all files and folders to Microsoft.

Honestly I downgraded to 10 earlier this year. Then the windows 11 update came out that boosts Ryzen performance, well my happy ass couldn't miss out on them gains. So back to 11 I went.

My PC is pretty much strictly used for gaming so more power is more power.

I immediately de-bloated once I was updated.

Good timing honestly. The only reason I kept a Windows machine around was for gaming. Now we have much better support across the board.

Keyloggers have been present since (at least) win 7. You're all way too late.

The invasion of Crappilot is so close!

Yeah because everyone knows once a company drops LTS the software becomes completely unusable!!!

Can’t really move to Linux if I have to make software for Windows since the majority of people won’t move to Linux.

I just had to use a Windows machine 10 minutes ago for the first time in 3 years. I hated it. I won't be doing that again until I have to.

You guys do realize that you can remove copilot from Windows 11 with a simple regedit or group policy editor tweak, right? Takes like 10 seconds..
