How do I turn off Copilot in Word documents?
I don't need Copilot in my word documents and I don't need the copilot icon stalking me on every page when I begin to type. Its very distracting. How do I disable Copilot?
This was really frustrating for me, too. I came up with an EASY workaround, although it's not a solution.
Create a template. However, it cannot be a totally blank page, as Copilot will still pop up. So you need to type at least one letter to prevent that from happening. I used "NoAI." Now, you just open the template instead of the "Blank Page" option. When you open the template, you just delete the "NoAI" and you're good to go.
Yeah, you still need to take that one action, but it's less annoying that closing the Copilot box, at least to me.
