Step-by-step instructions:

Update Office applications:
- Open Microsoft Word.

Activate Connected Experiences:

- Make sure that Connected Experiences is activated so that Microsoft 365 apps can use the AI functions.
Access to Copilot functions:
- Open a document in Microsoft Word.
- Look for Copilot features on the Home tab, a dedicated Copilot tab, or in the command options, depending on how Microsoft has integrated them.
- The functions can also be accessed via context menus or by calling AI commands directly in your document.
Additional tips:
Join the Insider Programme: If Copilot features are still not visible, you can join the Office Insider Programme, which often provides early access to new features. Here's how:
- In Word, go to File > Account.
- Under Office Insider, click Join Office Insider.
- Follow the instructions to join the programme and select an Insider level that's right for you (the Beta channel offers the earliest access, but may contain more bugs).
Contact your IT administrator: If you use a Microsoft 365 account at work, your IT administrator may need to enable certain features or permissions. Contact them for support.
Use Microsoft support: If you're still having problems, visit the Microsoft support website or contact Microsoft support directly for help.
By following these steps, you should be able to ensure that Microsoft Word is set up to use the Copilot features if they are available for your subscription and geographic region.
