Has anyone had issues with images not loading properly/at all?
Starting last week, the Copilot application has not been properly rendering generated images for several users - I have pasted several examples below, along with the errors I am receiving in various tools. Has anyone had a similar issue and/or been able to resolve it on their end? Is it possible to disable Copilot in Agent mode (i.e., return to Work mode)? Thank you! Please let me know if I can clarify with any additional details.Microsoft 365 Copilot enables deep work but lacks durable project and artifact continuity
a { text-decoration: none; color: #464feb; } tr th, tr td { border: 1px solid #e6e6e6; } tr th { background-color: #f5f5f5; } icrosoft 365 Copilot enables me to accomplish complex analytical and engineering work without needing to know everything upfront, which is genuinely transformative. However, the lack of durable project state, reliable artifact persistence (file generation and retrieval), and cross‑device continuity breaks real workflows. Copilot succeeds at reasoning, but outputs cannot be reliably retained, resumed, or transferred across sessions and devices. This limits sustained use for serious work in Microsoft 365 scenarios where users expect continuity similar to Word, Excel, and OneDrive. This is not a UX polish issue — it is a workflow and demand‑growth constraint for advanced users who want Copilot as a long‑running work partner rather than a disposable assistant. Copilot feels capable of being a first‑class Microsoft 365 collaborator, but today its lack of persistence prevents users from trusting it with real work.
Feature Request: Add Search Functionality in Copilot Chat History
Hi everyone, I’d like to suggest a feature for Microsoft Copilot that I believe would significantly improve usability and productivity: searching within chat history. Currently, users cannot search past conversations inside Copilot. This makes it difficult to retrieve previous answers, references, or technical instructions—especially in long or complex chats. Adding a search bar or keyword filter would allow users to quickly locate relevant messages without scrolling manually. This feature would be especially helpful for developers, IT professionals, and anyone using Copilot for technical troubleshooting or documentation. It would also reduce repeated questions and improve continuity across sessions. Please consider adding this capability in future updates. If others agree, feel free to upvote or share your use cases.

Cannot Share Fabric Data Agent
I created Fabric Data Agent. I published it to M365 Copilot. I shared it to user A, B, C. I copy the link https://m365.cloud.microsoft/chat/?titleId=T_xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx&source=agentCenterDialog. I generated an QR Code using canva. User A, B, C tried to scan the QR Code using their phone, but it returned an error as seen in picture 1. However, when user A, B, C opened it via laptop browser, it was not error. how to solve this problem?
Suggestion: Allow users to customize the UI name of MS Copilot (with “Powered by Microsoft 365”)
Background Microsoft Copilot is an extremely capable assistant, but its current visual identity is completely fixed (the name “Copilot” is always shown), even though users interact with it daily as a personal or team assistant. From a user experience perspective, this creates a small but important gap between using a tool and working with an assistant. Proposal Allow users to customize the visible name of their Copilot assistant, while maintaining a clear and consistent Microsoft branding indicator, for example: Holiday (name that the user creates for calling Microsoft Copilot 365 IA) Powered by Microsoft 365 Copilot (Text that Microsoft uses to reflect that it's already Microsoft Copilot). This proposal does not aim to change the underlying model, security, governance, or responsibility. It only affects the identity/presentation layer of the assistant. Why this matters (UX & adoption) Allowing users to name their assistant creates: Psychological ownership (“my assistant” instead of “the assistant”) Higher trust and willingness to delegate complex tasks Stronger long-term adoption and recurring usage In daily work, users naturally refer to assistants by name (“Ask Friday to review this document”), which helps integrate Copilot into real workflows instead of keeping it as an external tool. Enterprise perspective In organizational environments, a named assistant feels like part of the team rather than a generic external service. This improves internal communication, clarity, and acceptance of AI-assisted workflows. Importantly, the “Powered by Microsoft 365 Copilot” label keeps: brand visibility transparency technical and legal responsibility clearly with Microsoft This follows well-established patterns such as “Powered by Azure” or “Powered by Microsoft Security”. Strategic fit Microsoft already enables named and branded assistants through Copilot Studio. Extending this concept to the core Copilot experience feels like a natural next step with: Low technical risk (presentation-level feature) High UX impact No compromise on governance or brand integrity Closing Naming the assistant transforms the relationship from using AI to collaborating with AI. This small change could have a disproportionally positive effect on trust, adoption, and everyday productivity. Thanks for considering this feedback.
