Microsoft 365 & Co-pilot, getting started
Hi, my company has recently given me a co-pilot license to see how I can utilise this in Excel. I am trying to do some simple exercises to get familiar with the product. I have a small table of data and I am asking co-pilot to do basic things like add a total at the bottom, colour a cell green etc. Each time I give it an instruction, it is creating a new spreadsheet to download instead of giving me the option to 'apply' the change to existing worksheet. I have ensured that the autosave is turned on and I am on share drive. I'm not sure why this isn't working and wondered if anyone can help me with this issue?NilaniDec 17, 2025Copper Contributor46Views0likes2CommentsCopilot Chat in Word, Excel, etc but not in Outlook
I have an issue where Copilot Chat is available in all Office applications except Outlook. Environment: Windows 11 24H2 Microsoft 365 Microsoft® Outlook® for Microsoft 365 MSO Version 2510 (Build 16.0.19328.20266) 32-bit In Outlook, I can see the Copilot button, but the Chat experience is not available. I only see options like Reply and Summarize when an email is selected. Additionally, right after starting Outlook, the Copilot button is briefly visible, then it disappears again and only reappears once an email is selected. Why is the Copilot Chat not available in Outlook, while it works in all other Office applications?DuotoneDec 17, 2025Copper Contributor28Views0likes0CommentsSmall business
I'm using Exel 365. I've started a small business and doing the bookkeeping. I've started a spread sheet with several columns for the products. The first column has the daily date. on a second sheet I would like to get the totals for each month, I've used this formula: =SUMIFS('Business'!$B$2:$B$1000, 'Business'!$A$2:$A:$1000, ">="&A2, 'Business'!$A$2:$A$1000, "<="&EOMONTH(A2,0)) This only gives me a 0 return on my second column (JAN) and not the totals of the first sheet second column. Any help would be very much appreciated.SolvedmiraciDec 10, 2025Copper Contributor151Views0likes3CommentsCopilot conversation collapse/loops/non-responding: How do I fix?
I have been encountering critical errors with Microsoft Copilot entering non-responding states while simulating "Personas". I tried the troubleshooting and reporting pages but got told to F myself with a default "go to the troubleshooting page and do it yourself" response. 1. Is there a fix for these non-responding states? 2. What is the fix? 3. What more information do I need to provide? Thanks for helping.cptkrnchDec 03, 2025Copper Contributor115Views0likes2CommentsMicrosoft 365 Copilot License for Small Business Question
Hi! I'm the Global Admin for Microsoft 365 for a small company. Recently the CEO wanted to try Microsoft 365 Copilot(not the chat!) and I purchased a license for him. No one else have a license, not even me. So I purchased the license and assign it to him through the admin portal. So far he hasn't been able to use anything else but the chat. What am I missing here? I 've been checking settings and such and everything seems right. Any advice?nakshibilNov 19, 2025Copper Contributor215Views1like4CommentsCopilot Missing from M365 Portal
From one day to the next, Copilot Chat disappeared from the portal on one of our small clients' accounts. It's available and working in all other Copilot applications, but it simply disappeared from the Office portal. This is a premium business subscription without a Copilot license. The user has two PCs, and the problem occurs identically on both. No changes have been made. Community, do you have any ideas or suggestions on what the problem might be?

Our organization recently purchased Microsoft 365 Copilot licenses for all of our employees. One of the major tasks that we would like to utilize Copilot for is analyzing and summarizing documents on SharePoint. However, there are a couple of issues that we hope Microsoft is developing fixes for. There appears to be a data limit. If a file is too large, then we get a message, "I'm sorry, the size of this file is beyond my response limit. Select a file smaller than 150 MB and try again." We often have files that are beyond the 150 MB limit and it's very important to us for Copilot to analyze documents larger than 150 MB. It appears Copilot can analyze multiple, separate files at the same time. However, Copilot creates an output for each individual file rather than combining them. In other words, 1 summary for the first file, a second for the second, etc. Both issues are related. Basically, we need Copilot to analyze/summarize larger files. Beyond the 150 MB limit. Is this something that Microsoft is developing? Also, if we ask Copilot to analyze separate files, is Microsoft developing a solution where Copilot will combine the output?mcheathamAug 22, 2025Copper Contributor613Views2likes8CommentsCoPilot Is in the Way
Microsoft's constantly pushing CoPilot obstructs workflows, distracts focus, and is not effective. For example, although I've disabled CoPilot in Word in one installation and there is no CoPilot tab under Options in another installation, every time I start the app in the computer where there is no CoPilot Option tab, there are extremely distracting tiles at the top of the screen. If this continues, I'll be switching to LibxxOfficx (the full name is disallowed in this forum). In the meantime, does anyone know how to turn off these amazingly unproductive ads?JosephNierenbergJun 19, 2025Iron Contributor160Views0likes1CommentAdaptive Card in Declarative Agent not rendering
