New Copilot for Windows 11 includes a full Microsoft Edge package, uses more RAM

The new version of Copilot for Windows 11 has replaced the native app with a full Microsoft Edge package, resulting in higher RAM usage. The update downloads an installer instead of the app itself, and the new Copilot interface resembles the web version but uses significantly more RAM than the previous native version. The new Copilot is a hybrid web app with a bundled Edge browser, which contributes to its increased resource consumption. Despite its improved performance, concerns have been raised about the app's impact on Windows 11's system resources already burdened by web apps and PWAs.
