  • A bug in the most recent Windows 11 update removes Copilot from systems entirely.
  • Microsoft is currently working on a fix but those who need the app can simply redownload and install it from the Windows Store.
  • The update also introduced a bug for Roblox players on Arm hardware.

Will be hard to argue that it cannot be removed, like they did with internet exploder...

I uninstalled copilot and that bitch reinstalled itself.

Reminds me of "you are being rescued. Please do not resist"

Classic Microsoft. You are really just being a guest in your own computer.

Glad to be moving to Linux this year, wiping the last of my Windows-based installations out of my house.

I really want to do this but I can't, is creative cloud running on linux?

[–] russjr08@bitforged.space 3 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Not to my knowledge, no*. Though it's been a while since I looked into it.

* Outside of running them inside a Windows VM on Linux, but that has its own issues. Especially if you use any of the CC apps that need GPU acceleration. It can definitely be done, but I'd argue most people are not going to want to go through the effort and rather just use Windows directly.

Yup, I'm sticking to my current setup. When windows 11 gets forced unto me I'll probably switch to linux and buy a beefy mac for adobe.
