    Hi @Aidan Wendt

    I understand your frustration, especially after using and preferring the previous Copilot experience for several years.

    Unfortunately, there is currently no supported setting to skip the migration or switch back to the old Copilot version. The older app is being replaced automatically, so reinstalling it or using an older installer would not provide a permanent rollback.

    If your previous conversations are important, please sign in to the updated Copilot with the same account before December 31, 2026, so eligible chats and content can be preserved during the migration.

    I know this is not the answer you were hoping for. At present, the only practical option is to use Send feedback in Copilot and describe which features or behaviors from the old version you would like restored.

    Please note that this is a user-to-user support forum. Moderators and contributors cannot access accounts or Microsoft’s back-end systems. We can only provide technical guidance on reported incidents, requests and ideas 

    Thank you for your understanding and time
