Microsoft Copilot 365 Personal Premium limits
In my Copilot Notebook, I deliberately loaded 20 PDF files in order to test Copilot’s grounding behavior across the full set of available references. At the time this testing setup was created, 20 references represented the effective grounding limit described for Copilot Notebooks, meaning that these references were expected to form the source base used by Copilot when generating grounded responses. The references consisted of fully functional, original academic textbooks containing relevant and up-to-date scientific information, mostly published within the last ten years. Importantly, the sources do not differ from one another in terms of accessibility, file type, availability, or how they were added to the notebook. They are all PDF files, they are all available in the same environment, and there is no obvious difference in access conditions that would explain why some are consistently used while others are repeatedly treated as inaccessible, unavailable, summarized, or skipped. The purpose of the test was therefore not simply to see whether Copilot could access 20 files, but whether it could actually ground its answers in the complete reference set when explicitly instructed to analyze all available sources. Despite this, in approximately 99.9% of my tests, Copilot appears to ground its responses in only 3 to 5 of the 20 available references, often repeatedly using the same documents. When I ask what happened to the remaining sources, Copilot gives different explanations. Sometimes it says that it does not have access to certain files. Sometimes it says that it only received a summary of the file. Sometimes it says that a step involved in retrieving or processing the information failed. The way Copilot explains this often makes it sound as if access to the uploaded files depends on some external or intermediate system, rather than being something Copilot itself can directly control. This is difficult to understand from a user perspective because the files are already uploaded into the Copilot environment and were specifically provided as source material for analysis. The practical result is that a task explicitly requesting analysis of 20 sources often produces an answer based on only 3 to 5 of them. For academic or research use, this is a serious limitation. If 15 to 17 out of 20 carefully selected sources are not actually examined, then the final synthesis cannot realistically represent the full source base. This also creates uncertainty about what Copilot means when it claims to have used the provided materials. My question to Microsoft is: Is there a technical limit on how much information Copilot can actually retrieve, open, and analyze from uploaded files during a single task or session? If such a limit exists, what is that limit? And why, when 20 valid PDF sources are uploaded and Copilot is explicitly instructed to analyze all of them, does it so often appear to open only 3 to 5 files, while describing the others as inaccessible, summarized, or unavailable because some retrieval step failed?
Copilot AI
hello Im using iPhone 7 plus (ios 15.8) that I cannot access copilot ai website via Firefox/safari/Chrome/edge needed to download its own app but requires ios 26 beyond, and then when i searched copilot.com via 4 browsers it says "you can access either web or app", when I open app store but still won't download, can you solve it?
How does ERP MCP determine F&O environment?
How does the Dynamics 365 ERP MCP Server determine the target Finance & Operations environment when multiple environments (SIT, UAT, and Production) have MCP enabled? In Copilot Studio, the MCP connection only shows the authenticated user and does not expose any environment selection or environment identifier. Is the target F&O environment determined by the underlying Power Platform connection, the MCP client registration, a connection reference, or another routing mechanism? How can administrators verify which F&O environment an MCP-enabled agent is actually connected to?
Issue with Copilot
Issue Report: Plotting Engine Fails to Generate Charts Summary The chart‑generation feature in Copilot intermittently fails to produce output. When requesting visualizations such as radar charts, bar charts, histograms, or other plotted graphics, Copilot often returns an empty result with no error message or explanation. Observed Behavior Requests for plotted charts sometimes return "" (empty output). No error message is provided, making troubleshooting impossible. The failure occurs even with simple, valid datasets and straightforward instructions. Conceptual or AI‑generated diagrams work consistently; only plotted charts fail. Expected Behavior Copilot should reliably generate charts when provided valid data and instructions, or provide a clear error message if the request cannot be completed. Impact This issue prevents users from visualizing structured datasets and reduces confidence in Copilot’s ability to produce quantitative graphics. It also forces users to retry multiple times or switch to non‑chart visualizations. Request Please investigate the stability of the chart‑generation environment, particularly around sandbox execution and rendering reliability. Adding explicit error messages when chart generation fails would also significantly improve usability.
In some texts Copilot can not se what text you have chosen for it to work with.
In some texts Copilot can not se what text you have chosen for it to work with. That means it can not work with parts of the text (like proofreading) only the whole text. The issue occurs in some texts and not in others. The issue follows specific text even when pasted into a brand-new document with no formatting. Comments, highlights, license reset, and Office reinstallation does not resolve the issue. What could suddenly make text "bad" like that? - My Word version: 16.113.4 - Device: MacBook Pro M3 - macOS version: TahoeFeedback: Multiple Reliability and Consistency Issues Encountered with Copilot
Hello everyone, While using Copilot, I have noticed a few recurring issues: Occasional hallucinations, where incorrect information is presented as factual. Inconsistent reasoning, with answers sometimes contradicting earlier responses. Limited fact-checking before making assertions. Loss of context in longer conversations. Significant variations in answer quality for similar questions. I would appreciate improvements in fact verification, context retention, reasoning consistency, and transparency when information cannot be confirmed. Has anyone else experienced similar issues? Thanks for your feedback.Minimal visual system & fast message management for Copilot.
Hello, I create concepts — conceptART. The conversation with a language model becomes much clearer when you introduce two geometric markers. A blue circle for the user and a green triangle for the model. I believe these visual markers would make sessions with the model more readable and easier to navigate. One thing that frustrates me is the lack of fast message management inside a session. I write densely, metaphorically, in mental images. I have a very active inner speech, and I don’t need to look at the text while writing. I create quickly, and every session produces something valuable—something mine—and I would like a way to quickly save both my messages and the model’s messages. My idea is simple: Each message, both from the model and from the user, could have a small white triangle next to it, and next to that triangle a number — 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. In Copilot settings, the user could define folder paths corresponding to these numbers. Each number would map to a specific folder. The user could name these folders, for example: important, to reflect on, essence, ideas, big concepts. After clicking the triangle with number 1, the program would automatically create a text file named note1. For clarity, messages saved from the model could be named note1_model, and messages saved from the user note1_user. I believe this would give users speed and clarity, and would interrupt the logical flow of thought only minimally. Thank you, SAre there any plans to bundle E7 licenses for trainers, or add Copilot to E5?
I find myself increasingly being asked to deliver courses on Copilot, and the only way I get access to the Pro version is via the labs. However, this doesn't give me time to set up demos of Graph, crawling across data and building context etc. Does Microsoft have any plans to give us MCT's any access to Copilot, through our E5 subscriptions or otherwise? Or are we expected to pay for it?
