Around three months ago, users started reporting about a new Copilot app that had been quietly installed on Windows PCs. Microsoft declared that the app was harmless and now it has been removed.
Microsoft has announced that it has completely removed all traces of the Microsoft Copilot app that users found installed on their systems on their Installed apps list. The first reports of such an app, which was 8KB in size, emerged towards the end of March this year. Soon after, Microsoft had to roll back the update after it took notice of the issue.
The tech giant later stated that the app was totally harmless and it was not meant for capturing or analysing any user data nor did it run any code in the background.
