Turn On or Off Search online and include web results in Windows 10

I'm getting the same results. Back to the drawing board for v2004.

Thank you for letting me know.

And thanks, too, for your help. Hope some one will find a new solution soon.

FYI: Winaero has a PowerShell script to use firewall blocking:

Disable Web Search in Taskbar in Windows 10 Version 2004

(Not tested by me.)

I did not update my systems yet for the reason of not being able to disable web searches.

Brink, did you try this registry setting?

The site claims that it works...

I'll test it later today once Patch Tuesday is over. Going to be a busy day.

This Patch Tuesday is tricky for people, who disabled updating because of v2004. I guess downloading "Patch Tuesday" is an option?

You could pause updates for a while, or disable automatic updates to selectively install what you want when you want.

Thanks for the tip, trying WAU Manager now...

I just tested, and it does indeed work. Thank you.

Tutorial now updated to work again in Windows 10 version 2004 and higher.

Thanks Brink, filed away to be the first thing to run, once the systems are updated...
