Comment on Microsoft in their infinite wisdom has replaced the Hide Desktop icon with Copilot.

I guess they figured out where people clicked a lot and put the button there?
Looking forward to the Google search trends for “disable copilot”
Or where people didn’t click a lot.
Could go either way - I could see MS doing this because people use this a lot.
Only time I’ve ever used it was the first time I installed a version with it (7?).
Win-D is far faster, or a simple Alt-Tab, which I’ve used for what, 30 years now?
I have files download / export to desktop pretty often since I use it as a visual workspace (I can drag things around freely), and I got used to hitting that button. Since it’s in the corner, it was easy to throw the mouse down there, similar to the X in the top right
I could get used to the keyboard shortcut though, especially because that one is reversible
I always liked the idea of the desktop, it’s just never been useful for me (and I’ve tried, since Norton Desktop in 1992).
Mine just becomes a cluttered, illegible mess. Probably because I find icons messy and confusing. Lists make sense to me, icons and graphics just seem like wasted space.
I suppose if I could have folder views on my desktop that could work.
Right click on taskbar -> Taskbar settings. Toggle button to turn off Copilot is right there.
Hey HEY! Stop going so fast. This is why we all need to switch to Linux RIGHT HERE. We can’t all be expected to learn these complicated instructions.
Okay… I’ve cleared my schedule today and I’m ready. So, how does one “right click”?
What was there before? I don’t remember ever needing to click in that area. I did notice the new icon but as far as I knew it just moved the clock over.

Just don't search that if you've also been searching for any flights recently.
