The Copilot in system tray change will be rolling out more broadly with that update.

thanks so much. I regularly use this function when I have a lot of screens open, it's very handy. I was getting frustrated without it.
I hate how Microsoft just sneakily disables functions in updates without giving you the option.
As that co-pilot thing seemed to sit in the same sort of location, I though Microsoft may have incorporated the function into it, but I couldn't find it.

Thanks to your video, I have the button back. Such a small feature, but a very important feature!

Awesome, Thanks. I have noticed this missing the past few weeks. Always use that function.

I'm on the Beta channel but I don't get the moved Copilot button or the hidden show desktop button.

Quick question. Sorry, how do you turn on the peek system? It doesn't work anymore. I'm trying to hover over the show desktop button and it doesn't preview my desktop.

When I was Updated my Laptop into this Update in Windows 11, I'm so Frustration because I think on this Update was a Bug. But, apparently there's no Show/Peek Desktop and it's a bit Complicated and then, I go to a Settings and the Show Desktop Taskbar Button was Disabled, and I'm Unable it and it's turn Back again.
