how about fucking autopilot too instead of having to find a registry to disable it.
Edit: I'm dumb and don't know what I was even being mad at. I should have said copilot, that’s what I actually meant. I didn’t realize autopilot was a thing.
What do you mean. Autopilot is an enterprise feature. If you bypass Autopilot you are either circumventing your organization's policy or you bought a computer that was not removed from org properly.
Or you actually bought a 'pro' license in the hopes of being treated less like an insolent child by a device you own.
Autopilot and Pro have absolutely no tie other than Pro being a requirement to leverage the enterprise feature
Ahh shit, Freudian slip...
I thought we were talking about copilot. Microshafts desktop AI tool. Not autopilot, the corporate device deployment/lifecycle/recycling program...
I'd imagine most of the upvotes thought the same.
Yup
gasp
As the sys engineer for an organization that creates the policy....don't do that
I'm going to do it
I'm gonna force my entire company to edge harder because of this policy! Long live edging. I hope they edge over chrome Everytime.
Make them yahoo while you're at it
Sure! But I'll use a group policy to disable any searching via address bar so they have to go to "www.yahoo.com" I'll block any site that isn't prefixed with www. Manually

A literal felony!!
I was given windows 10 pro with the computer I adopted. I didn't realize it was an enterprise feature.
Are we talking about this feature? If yes, you must simply ask company / school in which that computer is assigned to to remove it from their Autopilot list.
I should have said copilot, that's what I actually meant. I didn't realize autopilot was a thing.
Oppossed to me who somehow forgot Copilot is a thing :) Should have realized that.
I have it simply disabled in settings so it does not show up. Maybe it is not completely disabled and some parts of it are still running amd would need to apply policy to disable it, but can't say it bothers me much.
Further, Microsoft has a support queue specifically for requesting removal if you can produce purchasing paperwork
... Not that anyone with technical chops should care. This will only ever impact you at OOBE, which is easily bypassed
