Microsoft has once again made changes to Copilot, with the new version now being delivered to Windows 11 Insiders. The redesign is meant to rethink the experience from the ground up, and that means Copilot is now a native app that’s directly integrated into the operating system.

Microsoft has finally launched a true native Copilot app for Windows 11, and it is entirely developed on the WinUI 3 framework.

The latest version has a new look with a panel on the right showing the history of queries, and responses showing on the left.

If you've lost count of how many times Microsoft has updated the Copilot app in Windows 11, you're not alone. And normal.

"Copilot" experience has been created from scratch for the fifth time in a row, and it looks like Microsoft has finally got it right.

Of course, activating Windows 11 in a less-than-legitimate way is nothing new. And the script that Copilot provides instructions for isn’t even a new one—it’s been around for a few years. However, the fact that Microsoft hasn’t created some kind of safety net to keep Copilot from talking people through the exact process is kind of crazy.

When testing Windows Copilot for workarounds, it will now completely reject any prompts for activation codes, third-party tools, and how-to information. Additionally, it stresses how unauthorized copies of the operating system are illegal, violate the terms of service, and recommends contacting official Microsoft support to get a legitimate copy.

A Redditor asked Microsoft’s Copilot if there was a script to activate Windows 11, and the Copilot outlined the instructions. The Copilot AI guided the Redditor through step-by-step instructions on illegally activating Windows copies using the Microsoft Activation Scripts.

Redditors have discovered that Copilot will recommend a script to permanently activate copies of Windows and Office. It’s a method that’s been available for a couple of years now, but it’s certainly amusing to see Copilot offer up the exact detailed steps.

Microsoft has decided to give its Copilot app a fresh coat of paint for Windows users, making the new AI app more in line with the Windows 11 aesthetic.

Microsoft’s Copilot generative AI is popping up in Windows, Edge, Office apps, and Bing. But just what exactly is it? Here’s everything you need to know.
