    We’re working hard to get rid of Microsoft as last we checked, we can’t disable copiloi using our data used on SharePoint without also removing all required user functionality like searching documents from SharePoint. We searched everywhere and literally couldn’t find a way to remove that.

    I know that government is storing citizens data there…

    WTF, why have companies ever decided to use Microsoft ?

    Dump Microsoft, now.

      Because the IT Manager is a clueless imbecile who only wants things his way and will not take in any other alternatives whatsoever. Doesn’t matter if it’s better for the company, they insist on having everything their way.

      I believe the government gets a different version of Windows. My work has blocked copilot and all the AI tools. The search function in Sharepoint works for me though. Companies cannot afford to dump Windows. They need to hire people with Linux knowledge or train existing employees and most importantly rewrite programs still using MS DOS.

        programs still using MS DOS

        Ever heard of DOSBox, the multiplatform DOS emulator?

        But yes, the lack of support for Office and other programs on Wine is a problem.
