I’ve got Windows
10 installed and when I perform a search in the start menu the results include
everything in the world coming from a full Bing search. I don’t care much for
Bing and all I really want to do is find stuff on my computer. Can I disable
this extra search result information that isn’t helpful for me?
I found this
confusing as well. I’m used to just using the start menu to find things on my
own computer and suddenly I’m finding things all over the world which have no
relationship with what I’m looking for. I have good news and bad news about
disabling this search however. Yes, you can disable it, the bad news it you
have to disable Cortana at the same time. Some people love her some people hate
her but she is a voice assistance that is supposedly able to help you while
using your computer. She sort of an invisible clippy, as it were. In any case,
if you want to disable the Bing search you have to first disable Cortana in the
settings and once you disable her, you have an option to also disable the Bing
search as part of your start menu search button. Not the best solution but at
this point it is the only way to get rid of that extraneous information.
