      and I’m sure it won’t turn itself back on anyway every software update… with 15 promtps “hey are you really sure you don’t want to use this, we’ve improved it, why don’t you try it again before you disable it again”.

    Translation: Microsoft broke something and can’t figure out how to fix it so will now let you turn it off.

    First thing I did on my w11 rigs was regedit to disable web search. Dumbest thing they did on w11 imo and ruined the start menu. Fucking thing would look up web searches for “documents” before even thinking about showing me my documents folder, if I wanted to web search what document means I would have opened my fucking browser!

    But you’ve always been able to turn it off…

    One of the first things I do to a new computer/reinstall.

    Maybe it was from regedit, not sure, but still possible.
