Copilot on Windows: Vision and file search begin rolling out to Windows Insiders
Message
<blockquote data-quote="Brandon LeBlanc" data-source="post: 1122233"><p>Hello Windows Insiders, we are beginning to roll out an update for the Microsoft Copilot app on Windows via the Microsoft Store which introduces the following changes and improvements: <strong>File search</strong>: You can now find, open and ask questions about the contents of a file on your device from the Copilot on Windows app. You can adjust your permissions for what Copilot can access, retrieve, or read in Copilot Settings under Permission settings.
