    How can I disable web suggestions in Search bar?


    Hi,

    There is a little window in the bottom left corner of my screen in Windows 10 that says "Type here to search". When I click on it and start typing (wanting to search for something on my computer), along with things on my computer, I am also shown things on the internet. How can I change this so that the only things shown when I use this window are things on my computer?

    Thanks.

    Used to be possible but not after the build specified in red in this tutorial:
    Turn On or Off Search online and include web results in Windows 10

    Were you to use the free Open Shell start menu, its search is much more configurable.

    Note you can use the syntax shown here or the options at the top to restrict what is searched:
