You can remove it from the taskbar easily, but that means you can still Win+C into it. If you want it disabled entirely, you have to enter the following code into the terminal.
reg add HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsCopilot /v TurnOffWindowsCopilot /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f 
If you change your mind, use the following code. You probably won't, but it's important still.
reg delete HKCU\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\WindowsCopilot /f

Edit: Does not work for me on 11 Home. I suspect you need a Pro, Enterprise, or Education version.
