How to Toggle Copilot Vision in Microsoft Edge

You toggle Copilot Vision in Microsoft Edge by adjusting a specific setting within the browser’s privacy options.

Copilot Vision allows Microsoft Edge to analyze content directly on your screen, providing AI-powered assistance for tasks like summarizing web pages or answering questions about visual elements. Microsoft began rolling out these enhanced AI capabilities in early 2024.
