Two ways to get the fucking "copilot" key to shut the fuck up
I had to buy a new PC. For some reason (*cough* monopoly and forced consumer adoption *cough*), my beloved right ctrl key was absconded away in the middle of the night, beaten to death with a 1990s router, hollowed out, and Microsoft shoved its middle finger up its desecrated asshole to install a "copilot."
I needed to resurrect my beloved ctrl key, or at least put it to a peaceful rest.
Tom's Hardware has a guide.
The secret: The so-called "copilot" key is three keys in a trenchcoat: Left Shift + Windows key + F23.
The F23 key is a 1990s Function key. Most keyboards only go up to F12 these days, so F23 doesn't do anything by default anymore. So Microsoft's corrupted and twisted the ancient ways for this.
What to do if you just want the fucking key out of your life:
