    you can turn off Copilot completely by following the instructions on this page.

    Here is a direct link for the instructions, it’s easy: https://www.libreoffice.org/download/

      Disabling copilot seems to be a weekly action I have to take on my work computer. I wish Libre Office was a viable option…

        There are portable versions available which you could dump on a USB stick if they haven’t disabled USB use. https://www.libreoffice.org/download-other/

        LibreOffice is only a “not viable option” if you have to work from a corporate computer and they won’t allow you to install it.

          Previous poster is probably talking about a company-owned computer. I’d be fired in a hurry if I installed anything on one of the computers at the hospital I work at… MS office is the only option for me at work.
