Coming from the Company that brought you “Visual Studio” and “Visual Studio Code” and called the followup of “.NET Framework” just “.NET”. Sometimes I think they want their products to be hard to search.
Or the Xbox, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Xbox One X/S, Xbox Series X/S.
Or Windows 98, Me, 2000, XP, Vista, 7, 8, 10, 11.
Someone at Microsoft just really wants people to know that naming is hard. I am pretty sure they’re intentionally confusing customers so they only know what the current product is.
I think they do this intentionally because their users are so bad at computers, they will want “copilot” everywhere, and think of it as intellisense (microsofts word for auto completion).

Windows subsystem for Linux (WSL) which is Linux as a subsystem of Windows.
Oh there’s more. There’s also 365 Copilot and Windows Copilot.
Not confusing at all.
And there is Windows 365, and Microsoft 365.
And Office 365
Microsoft 365 is the new name for Office 365
Soon they will just rename everything to Copilot.
Oh boy.
Microsoft Defender: You must be new.
