Microsoft is testing a new Copilot feature called PC Insights, which allows users to ask the AI natural-language questions about their hardware and storage, such as “Do I have enough space for a 100GB game?” or inquire about CPU usage, battery health, and other metrics. According to a Microsoft support document, PC Insights will monitor CPU, RAM, and GPU usage, estimate free storage, check folder sizes, and display connected USB devices, external drives, printers, webcams, and the status of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connections. The feature will be optional and will ask users for permission each time, unless they choose “Always allow.” However, testing with Windows Latest revealed that the current Copilot uses up to 1GB of RAM when idle and occupies significant storage space because it includes an embedded copy of Microsoft Edge, making it a resource hog that contributes to the very issues it aims to identify.
