Microsoft begins removing Copilot from Windows 11, starting with Notepad, Snipping Tool, but not entirely

Microsoft has started removing the Copilot branding from Windows 11, beginning with Notepad and Snipping Tool. Notepad has replaced the Copilot logo with a subtler "Writing tools" icon, while Snipping Tool has completely removed AI integration. Microsoft is reducing unnecessary Copilot integration in Windows, with a focus on apps like Snipping Tool, Photos, Widgets, and Notepad. The changes are gradually rolling out, but AI features remain in Notepad despite the rebranding. The removal of Copilot from these tools signifies a shift in Microsoft's approach without eliminating AI entirely.
