tistou77 Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 Hello How to remove "shortcuts" Copilot (preversion), Show Search button, Show Task view button in the right-click menu of the taskbar (keeping the taskbar improved) ? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kleine Eule 73 Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 (edited) If you read the page I posted on 11.10.23 here in the forum (forum page 103 third last post) even further than just the first 3 sentences, then you will find that you can disable this stupid CoPilot of micro junk using the registry settings or can uninstall using a script ! Excerpt from the page : Method 1: Using the Group Policy Editor Windows 11 Pro users can access the Group Policy Editor on their system to disable Copilot by following these steps........... Method 2: Using Registry Editor. If you are using a non-Pro version of Windows 11, you will need to use Registry Editor to remove Windows Copilot, as Group Policy Editor is not bundled with Windows 11. This is a bit more advanced and you should proceed at your own risk............ here again the link to the page described by me https://www.neowin.net/guides/how-to-turn-off-or-remove-windows-copilot-on-windows-11/ Edited October 13, 2023 by Kleine Eule 73 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kleine Eule 73 Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 For info then for all. SaB has not been working for insiders for several versions of Canarychannel. It produces random untraceable crashes of the explorer or the system freezes completely. Microsoft seems to have changed several things in the way the taskbar works. So don't be surprised if SaB fails to work out of the blue. Tihiy already wrote some time ago that he will delete posts concerning Canarybuild here. I think because there is simply no way to get a grip on this mess from microsoft using Win 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BugReporter said: And speaking of annoyances, with my latest W11 update, I got a new icon on SaB's taskbar with a tooltip saying "Copilot (preview)" that launches Edge (not my default browser) when clicked. Oddly, it doesn't appear when I turn off SaB. @Tihiy, can you modify SaB to kill it? Same issue here. My PC (Win 11 Home) doesn't even have Windows Copilot as an option, so there's no setting in Personalization > Taskbar to remove it. This is just a button (which does nothing but open Edge, a browser I don't use), which StartAllBack itself is adding to my taskbar for unclear reasons. Unfortunately for me, right clicking is no different from right clicking anywhere else on the taskbar; there's no option to remove the icon. EDIT 1: I tried two different registry changes from around the Internet and they did nothing. Presumably because they're designed for when the OS is inserting the Windows Copilot preview button, but it seems like in this case StartAllBack is inserting the button. EDIT 2: It was interference with ExplorerPatcher. Was able to turn off the button with right click after uninstalling.

CompUser Posted October 21, 2023 Share Posted October 21, 2023 I discovered that if you right click on copilot in the start menu, it gives the option to uninstall it. It appears to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nyorbee Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 (edited) Hi I have a problem, I can't pin shortcut to o file to the start menu, for example by draging it to the start menu. I know that It can be done, because I already have some shortcut to a files in my start menu that I made long time ago. But I don't remember how i did that, if there was some trick to do that or what. Now I'm not able to do that I'm talking about the left side of the start menu when You open it :) Edited October 22, 2023 by nyorbee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
