Frequently Asked Questions

Does this remove Copilot from the Edge browser as well?

Yes. Our optimization script disables both the Windows taskbar integration and Edge's built-in Copilot sidebar.

Can I still use ChatGPT or web-based AI tools?

Absolutely. This tweak only disables Microsoft's pre-installed operating system background bloat. Your web browsers and external AI tools remain completely unaffected.
