About this tag
The copilot removal policy tag covers Microsoft's administrative policy for removing the Copilot app from Windows 11. This policy, introduced in the spring 2026 Windows 11 policy stack, allows administrators to uninstall the consumer Copilot app via Group Policy, MDM, or Registry on supported editions like Pro, Enterprise, Education, and IoT Enterprise/LTSC. The tag reflects discussions about IT governance, user objections to forced AI integration, and Microsoft's shift toward making Copilot manageable rather than mandatory. Topics include enterprise deployment, policy enforcement, and the distinction between removing versus disabling Copilot.
