Hello

Is it possible to disable bing search when we type something on search bar in start menu or search icon on taskbar.
I provided the screenshot below to better understand what I say.

run smd as administrator and enter the command:

reg.exe add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Search" /v DisableWebSearch /t REG_DWORD /d 1 /f
reg.exe add "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Search" /v BingSearchEnabled /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f

and restart your pc.

This worked perfectly.
The start menu really boosted with just this simple trick.
Thanks
