On my work PC the Copilot icon shows up and disappears on a whim. It's weird...
Probably the admins chasing it around and disabling it.
We've disabled it via policy at work at least 3 separate times now, Microsoft finds some new smart way it should work and then you need another policy to block it...
This is so annoying that it’s almost funny.
Microsoft is using copilot to find more intrusive ways to install copilot.
It's called reinforcement learning.
As another admin, can confirm. I hate it here.
