  • Microsoft is currently working on a fix but those who need the app can simply redownload and install it from the Windows Store.
  • The update also introduced a bug for Roblox players on Arm hardware.

    Update KB5053598 is a very simple update that includes “miscellaneous security improvements to internal OS functionality”

    Removing Copilot wasn’t unintentional at all. They said so right there in the release notes.

      i believe you’re on to something, with the thought that removing it wasn’t unintentional…

      i am willing to bet it was deliberate, but as a way to catch more users who refuse to upgrade from Win10 BECAUSE of Copilot. once they get more users to adopt, they simply put it back in, in one of their updates

        I think they just made a release without it (for EU or stuff) and either forgot to turn in back on for regular releases, or it didn’t because of a bug.
