I use standalone Word, but it's on Windows, where I've been able to disable Copilot, so far.
I'm glad to hear it. Until this afternoon I thought I had successfully kept it out of my word processor, whence much of the horror as well as the stress of the interference.
Think I found an Apple Support discussion that sounds like your post! In any case, if the Copilot widget was added on Mac ahead of the Prefs > Proofing Tools check box that's meant to go with it, that's a pretty bad UX bug (atop the bad UX of Copilot itself), and I am sorry.
Thank you! Yes, suddenly there was Copilot in my documents but no means of controlling it, which is what the second Apple tech saw when she shared my screen—I had by then repeated several times the list of available Authoring and Proofing Tools distinctly minus a Copilot icon—and said she had never seen before. I didn't think I could be the only person who had this problem, but I wish anyone else with it luck. I don't think there's a way out of it except reverting the versions.
