Either I am stupid or you're being dishonest. There is no one click way to disable it. Only on pro versions of windows, with a group policy otherwise a couple of obscure registry keys no regular users know.

I stand corrected. I didn’t know the Home Version has no option to disable it. You are right for calling me out.

No group policy is needed on Windows 11 Pro, it's in the settings:

---

Type something in the Start menu

Top right meatballs menu button

'Search settings'

'Let search apps show results' -> Off (or disable only Bing)

---

I don't know about the Home edition.
