Window 11 Pro, v.10.0.26200
After researching online (and, yes, even using CoPilot), I attempted to totally remove these programs following the instructions provided. This involved using Group Policy Editor to remove CoPilot and Registry Editor to remove Bing. While my changes were accepted with no error indications, upon restart, there was no discernable succes in removing these programs.

Any ideas why I cant remove these "features"?

I disabled Copilot by using O&O Shutup!

As for Bing, I don't have that or any widgets, because I uninstalled Edge. However that might be a bridge too far for some!

But as has been posted, try a specific uninstaller.

Yep. REVO Uninstaller (free)
Just make sure to do the "Scan" for leftovers and remove all that stuff too.
