help Copilot for OneDrive FAQ
Can Copilot for OneDrive summarize several files at once?
Microsoft says you can select a supported file or up to 5 files from OneDrive and choose Summarize this file. The result is a quick first pass, not a replacement for checking the source documents, as explained in [Microsoft Support](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/onedrive/summarize-your-files-with-copilot).
Can Copilot for OneDrive compare two versions of a document?
Yes, Microsoft’s FAQ says Copilot can compare differences between two or more files. Use it for change spotting, then verify important wording against the original files because summaries can miss context, as noted in the [Copilot FAQ](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/onedrive/frequently-asked-questions-about-copilot-in-onedrive).
Which file types does Copilot for OneDrive support?
Microsoft lists most text-based documents, presentations, spreadsheets, and PDFs among supported file types, with availability varying by plan and rollout. Check your OneDrive account if the Copilot button does not appear for a particular file.
Do I need a Microsoft 365 subscription to use Copilot in OneDrive?
Copilot in OneDrive is tied to Microsoft 365 plans, and Microsoft lists support for Personal, Family, business, and related offerings. The exact feature set depends on the account and file context, so confirm the entitlement shown in OneDrive rather than assuming every free OneDrive account includes it.
