Hello, how do I install ViveTool to use Windows Copilot? Build Version: Windows 11 Insider Preview 23493.1000 (ni_prerelease)

I'm making the assumption you've tried ViveTool because Copilot isn't working for you though your question doesn't make that clear, but your "how do I install" implies you've downloaded it and are having trouble getting it to work. No matter, a reply to your concern should cover the bases so, yes, for some users ViveTool will be necessary to get past the bugginess of Windows OS.
I had the same issue and used ViveTool, but it didn't work out the box. I got a flashing prompt window that wouldn't stay up and when it did it was blank. Next, I searched for a solution to fix the solution and got the usual wrong answers because it's the rule rather than the exception that sites just copy information from each other and don't have first hand
knowledge of what they post. None of the prompt commands that were supposed to solve the broken solution worked except one which was:
c:\vivetool\vivetool.exe /enable /id:44774629, 44850061, 44776738, 42105254, 41655236
Make sure you put the whole vivetool folder in the root folder of C and name it simply "vivetool". When I hit Enter I got an error message the last 4 id numbers were unknown but apparently just the first was enough and I got the Copilot icon on the taskbar. But even that was buggy since it would now and again disappear, so you'll have to go into the taskbar settings and turn it off and on again to make it show.
