How to disable internet search results in start menu post Creators Update?
The article
The Windows 10 spring update no longer lets you disable web search in Start - workaround reports that the following registry update
is required in Windows 10 version 1803 :
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Search]
"BingSearchEnabled"=dword:00000000
"AllowSearchToUseLocation"=dword:00000000
"CortanaConsent"=dword:00000000
It remarks :
those entries are completely missing from the “Search” registry key, so you can safely delete them should you want to revert.
I would still recommend to at least create a system restore point before doing
any registry modifications.
A reboot might be required.
User @mtd has contributed below these commands for applying the updates to
the registry:
reg add HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Search /f /v BingSearchEnabled /t REG_DWORD /d 0
reg add HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Search /f /v AllowSearchToUseLocation /t REG_DWORD /d 0
reg add HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Search /f /v CortanaConsent /t REG_DWORD /d 0
EDIT1 : There are reports that Windows 10 version 2004 has broken the above fix.
The article
Disable Web Search in Taskbar in Windows 10 Version 2004
has a summary of the current state of the problem.
The current solution seems to be to download and run this
PowerShell script
as Administrator:
Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Scope Process
.\disable-web-search.ps1
As only a workaround, this PowerShell script blocks the online search using
Windows Firewall rules, so forcing the search to operate in offline mode.
EDIT2: Reports now say that these registry modification are working for
Windows versions 2004 and 20H2 without reboot.
