Life is busy and there's just so many things to remember. What tools do you use to help you keep on top of ALL the things?
Microsoft has integrated Copilot AI directly into Windows 11 Notepad, transforming what was once the simplest text editor into an AI-powered writing assistant. Whilst this feature can help you rewrite text, generate content, and adjust tone, it fundamentally changes a tool that many people valued specifically because it was fast, simple, and kept everything local on your computer.
In this episode, Charly covers:
✅ What Copilot in Notepad actually does and how it differs from Windows Copilot
📌 Privacy concerns about sending document content to Microsoft's cloud for processing
🔗 Why feature creep in a simple tool can be distracting rather than helpful
✅ Legitimate use cases where AI writing assistance in Notepad makes sense
📌 How to decide whether to keep or disable Copilot based on your workflow
🛡️ Step-by-step instructions to turn off Copilot in the Notepad application
For users who rely on Notepad for quick notes, password copying, confidential information, or simply distraction-free writing, ...
Windows 11 Copilot runs automatically on your PC, but what's the real cost? Microsoft's built-in AI assistant affects performance, battery life, and privacy in ways most users don't realise.
In this episode, Charly covers:
✅ Resource usage: RAM, battery drain, and background processes
📌 Privacy concerns about what Copilot accesses on your system
🛡️ Performance impact on computers with 8GB RAM or older hardware
✅ When AI assistance helps versus when it gets in your way
📌 How to disable Copilot system-wide if it's not right for you
Charly breaks down the performance tradeoffs, privacy considerations, and reliability issues so you can make an informed choice. This isn't anti-AI—it's about taking control of your system and deciding which tools actually serve your workflow. Includes step-by-step instructions to turn Copilot off.
