Copilot clutters Windows 11 context menus

neowin.net

Microsoft has added a new "Ask Copilot" option to Windows 11 context menus, likely frustrating users. This addition further clutters the already criticized menus. The new feature, part of the Copilot app update, allows users to interact with files using AI, such as summarizing documents. This update is expected to be unpopular due to the slow and confusing nature of the context menus. Users can remove the "Ask Copilot" option through a registry tweak or by uninstalling Copilot. Microsoft also announced upcoming AI-powered actions triggered by right-clicking files in File Explorer.
