An application or feature powered by Windows Copilot to assist users with tasks and productivity
Copilot suddenly reports "isn't available in your region" after recent update, despite being in Ontario, Canada
Hello,
I am experiencing an issue with Microsoft Copilot that started immediately after a recent update and I am hoping someone can help identify the cause.
When I attempt to use Copilot on my Windows PC, I receive a message indicating that Copilot is not available in my region. I am located in Ontario, Canada, where Copilot is supported, and the service was working normally prior to the update.
Troubleshooting already completed:
- Confirmed my Microsoft account region is set to Canada.
- Confirmed Windows regional settings are set to Canada.
- Confirmed my public IP geolocates correctly to Ontario, Canada.
- Not using a VPN or proxy.
- Cleared Edge cache and cookies.
- Tested in InPrivate mode.
- Uninstalled and reinstalled the Copilot app.
- Restarted the PC multiple times.
Additional observations:
- The issue occurs in both the Copilot app and Copilot in Edge on this PC.
- Copilot continues to work on my phone while connected to the same Wi-Fi network.
- I am signed in using a Microsoft 365 work account.
- Other Microsoft 365 services appear to be functioning normally.
Given that:
- My account, Windows settings, and IP location all show Canada,
- The problem began immediately after the recent Copilot update, and
- Copilot still works on another device using the same network,
I am wondering whether this could be related to:
- A recent Copilot update,
- An issue affecting Microsoft 365 work accounts,
- A tenant/account recognition problem, or
- A known bug causing false region detection.
Has anyone else experienced this issue recently, and are there any additional diagnostics or fixes I can try?
Thank you for any assistance.
