How to Install Microsoft 365 Copilot Without the Microsoft Store?

Hey everyone! I'm in a bit of a bind since the Microsoft Store is disabled in our VDI setup. I'm trying to figure out how to install Microsoft 365 Copilot without going through the Store. I remember there used to be a standalone `.exe` installer available, but it seems like it's now redirecting to the Store with the recent updates. Can someone help me with some updated installation steps or alternatives? Thanks in advance!

You can install it using winget. If you want to download the install files directly, run `winget download --id 9WZDNCRD29V9 --architecture x64`. Then, you can use PowerShell's Add-AppxPackage or Add-AppxProvisionedPackage commands to complete the installation.

InstallGuru77: Will this install on the C drive instead of app data? I'm trying to push this to instant clones on Horizon.
