I never approved to have CoPilot installed on my computer. I can't even log in! This is my only way to do remote work.

I do not have access to my keyboard! I can't log in!

    Your comments seem disconnected. Copilot doesn't have anything to do with being able to log into a computer or not. If you cannot log in then the system is having an issue, not Copilot. Since you didn't provide any details about what behavior or errors you're seeing it is hard to say what is failing. There are many, many articles online discussing the various things to try to get back into the computer. Almost all of them will require physical access to the machine though.

    In regards to uninstalling Copilot, you can go to the Apps settings in Windows and then to Installed Apps. Microsoft CoPilot is listed and can be uninstalled. Note that CoPilot is independent of what is integrated with Edge and Office apps. Those apps will still have the feature. Some Office apps allow you to disable them (as does Edge) but others do not.
