Win+C, Windows' most cursed keyboard shortcut, is getting retired again
How is the Copilot chatbot supported across Windows versions?
The Copilot chatbot is supported across Windows versions, including Windows 11 and most Windows 10 PCs5. In Windows 11, it is available as a persistent sidebar, while in Windows 10, it can be accessed through the taskbar. The chatbot provides text, voice, and image capabilities, as well as document summarization and image creation in Designer1.
Why has the Win+C keyboard shortcut been discontinued for launching Copilot?
The Win+C keyboard shortcut for launching Copilot has been discontinued because Copilot is being changed from a persistent sidebar into an app window that can be resized, minimized, and pinned or unpinned from the taskbar. As a result, the shortcut is no longer necessary.
What changes to Copilot are present in the Windows 11 24H2 update?
The Windows 11 24H2 update brings several changes to Copilot. It is now a fully-fledged web app, featuring an updated UI with a dedicated area for chats and a sidebar interface that tracks different conversation topics. Copilot can now be moved, resized, and snapped like a normal app, and its icon can be pinned to the taskbar or Start menu. Additionally, Copilot can be uninstalled if not intended for use.
