I got the september update for Windows 11 a couple of days ago. Just noticed that the Copilot icon and sidebar is now gone from Edge, Version 140.0.3485.81.

I've had it disappear before but was able to get it back through the settings in Edge, but I haven't managed to get it back this time.

Absolutely huge downgrade if I can't get it back.

    Hello, good day and thanks for your question. Please check and test as well if this is also happening in Beta, Canary or Dev builds that you can download and install separately and see how it goes. Also, the link for the Copilot settings is under edge://settings/appearance/copilotAndSidebar.

    In this case, it is also highly suggested to send a feedback to the team that is working on Edge for them to be aware of this and hopefully a fix will be applied soon on the next update and you can provide a feedback from the browser itself by clicking on the 3 dots > Help and feedback > Send feedback.
