Windows 10: Windows Search recommends Edge when searching for other browsers.

As the title says, Search is now recommending to try Edge whenever I search for Chrome, or any other browser, doesn't matter if it is installed or not.

This is how it looks. As you can also see, suggestions in Star Menu are disabled, yet not enforced. And this is when looking for Firefox which is not installed.

If anyone knows how to disable this, please let me know. Thanks.
