Microsoft has previewed a Windows 11 update that will allow users to disable Bing web integration in the Start menu and Windows search. The change was demonstrated during a recent meetup with Windows Insiders.
The Settings app will include a new option to remove web (Bing) integration from search results, and there will be a separate setting in the Privacy and Security section to exclude Microsoft Store apps from appearing in search results.
Microsoft has not yet announced a specific timeline or which Insider build the update will arrive in.
