How to Refresh Copilot on Windows 11

This guide explains how to refresh your Copilot session on Windows 11.

Microsoft introduced Windows 11 build 23493 to help you interact with your computer using simple language. It can change settings or help you work across different apps.

When Copilot is active on your PC, you will see a Copilot button will appear on the Taskbar.. You can open it by clicking the icon or by pressing the Windows key + C on your keyboard.

If you have Copilot, you can use features like you can pin or unpin the side pane, open Copilot when Windows starts, Turn Copilot on or off, and enable or disable Copilot using content from Edge to get things done.

Why refresh Copilot?

Sometimes the chatbot might stop responding or act strangely. Refreshing it clears the current session and lets you start a brand-new conversation. It is a quick way to fix minor glitches without restarting your computer.

What happens when you refresh?

When you refresh, the current chat window clears. All previous text in that specific session is removed, and Copilot resets to its starting state so you can begin a fresh task.

How to refresh the Copilot side pane

1. Open the Windows Copilot by clicking the icon or pressing the Windows key + C.
2. Once the side panel is open, look for the refresh button at the top of the window.
3. Alternatively, click the More options button (the three dots) at the top of the pane and select Refresh.

That is all there is to it. Your session is now reset.

Summary

Refreshing Copilot is a simple task that helps you clear out old conversations or fix chatbot errors. You can perform this action at any time using the refresh button or the menu options inside the Copilot side pane. No special admin rights are required to perform this action.
