Windows 10: Copilot suddenly disappeared

I just bought a Windows Surface, I've been using it for less than 5 days and today suddenly the copilot icon disappeared from the taskbar and also the copilot key. Instead of opening the copilot, a configuration>personalization window opens where it says The copilot key is not connected to any action. I didn't move any settings or anything, suddenly this is what happened.

:)

 

Copilot randomly got removed from taskbar options.

Hello,

I can understand how frustrating it is when an essential feature like copilot disappears unexpectedly.

Here are few steps to fix this issue.

1. Open Settings.
   
   Click on Personalization.
   
   In Taskbar, check if the Copilot toggle is off. If so, turn it on.
   
2. If Group Policy Editor isn’t working, try these steps:
   
   • Press Win + R, and enter gpedit.msc.
     
   • Navigate to User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Start Menu and Taskbar.
     
   • Look for any policies related to Copilot and ensure they’re not disabled.
     

If the problem persists, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Thank you.

Have a great day!

 

Copilot on Taskbar disappears

Copilot on the Taskbar has disappeared. Is there a way to get the Copilot preview back pinned to the Taskbar as before?

 

What is Copilot and How did it get on my PC?

If the Copilot button is visible in the taskbar, it will disappear after you apply the policy. You do not need to restart your computer or enforce the Group Policies. The Copilot option will also disappear from the Settings app.
