Windows 11 has been on a bit of a streak lately: bugs, glitches, and some genuinely weird design decisions. In this video I dig into one of Microsoft’s latest “we’re totally improving Windows 11” moves—removing Copilot integrations from apps. And sure enough, if you open Notepad or Snipping Tool, you’ll notice Copilot isn’t mentioned anywhere anymore. Which, honestly, I still don’t understand what Copilot was doing in Snipping Tool in the first place. But it gets more interesting in Notepad. Copilot didn’t exactly disappear—it got renamed. Where Copilot used to sit, there’s now “Writing Tools,” and when you look at what it does (rewrite text, summarize, etc.), it’s basically the same AI stuff with different branding. So the question becomes: is Microsoft actually listening, or are they running an experiment to see if people use AI features more when the Copilot name isn’t attached? Meanwhile, Snipping Tool looks like a clean removal with no replacement at all. To me, that suggests Microsoft’s “remove Copilot” plan is more complicated than just ripping it out—sometimes they’re deleting it, and sometimes they’re just hiding it in plain sight.
