    Btw, did you know that anything typed in start/search now counts as a search in edge? I wander whats behind that move.

    It searches for everything you search so that by the time you press enter, it already has the result of the last one, hence seeming faster.

      What i meant is, what good reason is there for local search to always count as a Bing internet search.

      If i wanted to look up something online id open up an internet browser with the search engine of my preference.

      Spamming my local search results with online rubbish is the opposite of value, even micrsoft devs acnowledge this which is why microsoft powertoys has macbook style local searchbar thats way faster and better at finding your files and offline.

        Well, it does search online too. That the implementation is atrocious is a different thing.
