Microsoft passed this point a long time ago.

Further evidence
<https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025/03/this-months-windows-updates-are-removing-the-copilot-app-accidentally/>:
now a Dimdows update deletes your Copilot app and taskbar icon, and
the only workaround is to put it all back again yourself:

    Microsoft says it is "working on a resolution to address the
    issue" but that users who want to get Copilot back can reinstall
    the app from the Microsoft Store and repin it to the taskbar, the
    same process you use to install Copilot on PCs where it has been
    removed.

This is why they say, Windows is a great OS -- if your time is worth
nothing.
