## Question by Sam T., 2026-11-10

I have an HP laptop on Windows 11 Home, version 24H2. A Copilot button showed up on the taskbar after an update and there is a Copilot key on the keyboard too. I do not use it and I keep opening it by accident. I looked in Settings under Personalization and Taskbar but I do not see a Copilot switch there any more. Is there a way to hide the button and stop the key from opening it without editing the registry? I would rather not break anything.
