How Do You Disable Copilot In Windows 11 Notepad? (2025/636)

Windows 11 Copilot runs automatically on your PC, but what's the real cost? Microsoft's built-in AI assistant affects performance, battery life, and privacy in ways most users don't realise.

In this episode, Charly covers:

✅ Resource usage: RAM, battery drain, and background processes
📌 Privacy concerns about what Copilot accesses on your system
🛡️ Performance impact on computers with 8GB RAM or older hardware
✅ When AI assistance helps versus when it gets in your way
📌 How to disable Copilot system-wide if it's not right for you

Charly breaks down the performance tradeoffs, privacy considerations, and reliability issues so you can make an informed choice. This isn't anti-AI—it's about taking control of your system and deciding which tools actually serve your workflow. Includes step-by-step instructions to turn Copilot off.
