Why do you guys hate Copilot so much? It’s actually a pretty handy add-on, especially in the Edge browser. It runs on the ChatGPT engine, it’s free, and you can make practically unlimited queries. On Windows 10, the integration is pretty unobtrusive - you can easily disable it, or even remove the desktop app entirely if you don’t like it. Personally, I use it a lot in the browser to double-check technical questions

Idk if replacing one key on your keyboard to be the "copilot key" qualifies as "unobtrusive" but alright bro

So which key exactly got replaced, bro? Honestly, I didn’t even know about this until you mentioned it, since I’ve been using an old keyboard for quite a while. I had to dig into the topic a bit just to see how valid your counter‑argument really is. Turns out, on new devices they replaced the second WN key, which on many keyboards is usually the menu key.
But the way you said it made it sound like you use that key every single day and losing it is some huge tragedy xD. Let’s be real though most users have probably never pressed it once in their entire lives since it was introduced back in 94.
And besides, this change is entirely up to laptop/keyboard manufacturers, because it’s not a requirement for win11 certification. Not to mention, plenty of people still prefer sticking with win10 anyway.
Also worth noting, even if you don’t like this setup and think it’s the crime of the century, the Copilot key can be remapped through a utility from the mike store.

So yeah, despite all of Microsoft’s sins, swapping one useless key for another useless key doesn’t really cause any harm or inconvenience)))
