What is ViveTool? Why do you need ViveTool to activate Windows Copilot?
The third-party tool you need is ViveTool, a software that can enable hidden features or limited features for some Windows users. Windows Copilot is one such feature: At the time of writing, this feature is limited to a select number of Windows users running Windows 11 Dev Insider builds.
You can join the Windows Insider program and enroll your PC in the Dev Channel in a few easy steps to continue activating Windows Copilot.
Once you've joined the Dev Channel, it's time to download ViveTool. To help you through the process, TipsMake has detailed instructions on how to download and use ViveTool to enable unreleased features.
Note : To activate Windows Copilot using ViveTool, you need to install Windows 11 Dev build 23493 or later.
