Essentially I have copilot turned off for the environment and I am doing some work on a table which I wanted to update and remove an outdated column. Essentially the below "Copilot view "is stopping me as its acting as a dependency and I cant delete this column , it appears to be only a recent change. There is no view in the dataverse table with this copilot so I am confused on what is causing this dependency on the column.
I found the solution below.

Thanks for posting this. I followed the directions in the video but I still can't delete the column because it says there is a dependency even though the column isn't in the view.
This screenshot shows the dependency:
This screenshot shows that I have deleted all columns in the copilot view except the created on field:
I should be able to delete it but still can't.
I am having the same problem as Patriarch3257. I have followed the instructions in the video, the column isn't in the view but I still can't delete because Power Apps thinks there is a dependency.
Try deleting the view itself.
I looked for that but I don't see the copilot view in the views list. I think it's a system view.
@TheArrayOfThing shared the workaround solution in this thread that they managed to remove the dependency using the "View Designer" in XrmToolBox.
The "Copilot View" is visible for selection there - and removing the column via "Edit XML" AND via "Edit Query" does remove the dependency.
Has anyone else found any other solutions besides XrmToolbox. I have some old Lookup tables that I am trying to remove so that I can export my solution without dependencies and I and number of them have these 'can't delete due to CoPilot Views" errors. It's annoying to be stymied by something I didn't create and that just appeared from a Microsoft addition.
Struggled to solve it but was finally able to do this in Classic mode
