Microsoft has temporarily halted automatic installation of the Microsoft 365 Copilot app on Windows devices with Microsoft 365 desktop apps.
The company announced the change via an update in Microsoft 365 Message Centre, but offered no indication when the measure would be reactivated. However, existing installations of the app will not be affected.
“Automatic installation of the Microsoft 365 Copilot app on Windows devices with Microsoft 365 desktop apps, planned for December 2025, is temporarily disabled,” it said, according to a copy of the March 16 update archived on a third-party mirror.
