Security News > 2023 > November > Microsoft confirms Copilot AI assistant coming to Windows 10
Microsoft will roll out the Copilot AI-powered assistant to Windows 10 systems enrolled in the Insider Program over the coming months.
Copilot in Windows was first introduced in September, initially available with Windows 11 22H2, and is now enabled by default automatically on Windows 11 23H2 devices.
Once added to a Windows 10 system, users can launch Copilot by clicking the Copilot icon at the end of the taskbar to open a chat window docked on the desktop where they can type in their queries.
Just like the Windows 11 version, Copilot in Windows 10 will also support voice interactions, which can be activated by clicking the microphone icon in the chat window.
"Windows 10 Pro edition devices on version 22H2 that are managed by organizations will not be included in the initial rollout of Copilot in Windows with this November non-security preview update," the Windows Insider Program Team said today.
Today's announcement confirms a recent Windows Central report that disclosed Microsoft's plans to substantially broaden Copilot's user reach by integrating the AI assistant into the desktops of Windows 10 users.
