Is there a way to use Co-pilot to compare the contents between two excel files and summaries the differences between these excel files?

leonoehlinger​, as shown in the screen shot above, please confirm that you're viewing your files under the My Files tab. Within that space is where Copilot will appear and support file comparisons. If you are within My Files and still don't see Copilot, please share a screenshot so we can take see what you're describing.

I have tried putting both files in OneDrive, selecting them but I dont see a Copilot menu. Where can I find the Copilot menu?

You may also use the pro version.
Note,, I had issues with co-pilot calculations when I have a large excels with 15+ tabs all linked to one another using scientific data.
You can also try to do this in copilot chat
e.g Compare these files File1.xls File2.xls ( upload or refer file 0

Yes... Put them in your OneDrive, select both files and you will see a Copilot menu, where you can select Summarize, Compare files or Ask a question.

When you select both files, Copilot should appear at the top bar:
Then just open Copilot from there and select Compare files:
And result is here:
