It only makes sense economically when they have as many people as possible using it and giving feedback.
Where feedback can be concealed, like how your actions after requesting advice correlate with it, or whether you clarify your request and how many times.
I have never liked having a search box in the taskbar. My taskbar is for pinned programs, open programs, volume, Ethernet/wifi, and a clock. Nothing more.
You can remove copilot from windows 11 completely now…with an outside program.
When I’m imagining some Win3.11-style UI, like in Star Wars: Rebellion game, I feel that a search box in the taskbar would be fine. The results should come up in a new normal separate window, of course. Not in a poisoned version of star menu.
The issue is not with having a control element in the taskbar. The issue is with those control elements being very hard to use. The response times are bad. The elements are not clearly separated. The results coming up are hard to navigate. It’s as if you were badly drugged and trying to find something in a heap of black sheets with luminous text in a dark room.
And also dynamic search on every change of that field is idiotic. They might do auto-completion if it’s fast.
I love having a search box on my taskbar. I want it to search my PC for installed apps and files and nothing else. I certainly don’t want to do a fucking Bing search for “Settings”
The original Copilot is GitHub Copilot which is a coding assistant and it’s very popular and useful for developers. I think most of the paying copilot customers and usage are coming from there.
Isn’t Copilot integrated with the Windows taskbar search?
I think the sole reason Copilot is used at all is because they’ve forced it in applications it has no place in, and requires it remain on by default.

It seems like a waste of space on the taskbar, to me
In the Start Menu/Finder/KRunner/wofi I want it to search, but I don’t need the text input box visible at all times taking space
It’s in fucking notepad

Kind of like internet explorer bundled with Office back in the day….
