Microsoft says it'll force install Microsoft 365 Copilot on Windows 11 with MS 365 Business in the next 30 days

Microsoft has confirmed that it will be force installing the Microsoft 365 Copilot app on Windows 11 devices with Microsoft 365 Business in the next 30 days. This move comes despite public pushback against the company's decision to embed the app in its software. The Microsoft 365 Copilot app will be auto-installed on eligible Windows PCs that have Microsoft 365 desktop apps. The company's decision to force install the app has raised concerns among some users who may not want the app on their devices. Microsoft's move to force install the app is seen as a return to its old ways of embedding new features and apps in its software. The company had previously faced criticism for its approach to embedding new features in its software, but it seems that it is now moving forward with its plans to force install the Microsoft 365 Copilot app. The auto-installation of the app will likely be done through an update to the Microsoft 365 desktop apps, and users may not have the option to opt out of the installation. The force installation of the app is expected to take place in the next 30 days, and it will likely be done without user intervention. The company's decision to force install the app has significant implications for users who may not want the app on their devices, and it raises questions about the company's approach to user choice and autonomy.
