Windows 10: How to remove `Top Apps' from the search dialogue? they are NOT apps I have used, it is...

Hello,

the new search feature is a mind -numbing outcome for me.
There is a list of TOP APPS in my search area now ...the problem being that I don't use those apps. e.g. MS Edge e..g Snip and Sketch. ..things I NEVER use.

Therefore, this just seems like a billboard for Microsfot products within MY computer. This is not acceptable at all.

Would anybody have advise on how can I completely remove this misleading, useless feature?

:)

 

How can I hide Top apps from Windows 10 search?

The Windows 10 May 2019 update added a new feature to the search menu called Top apps which lists your most used apps.





I want to hide this list from the search menu, just like you can do from the start menu.

I tried disabling Show most used apps in start, which, as the name suggests, only hides this from the start menu. I also tried disabling Store my activity history on this device and clearing my activity history in Windows 10's privacy settings. While disabling this option hid my recently opened files from the search menu, it didn't hide Top apps.

How can I hide Top apps from the search menu?

Yep, just realize theres no emoticons
And i dunno its from the app or something, sometimes i need to refresh several times to show the content

One more please add app update notification from the app or button for reporting bugs or suggestion


One suggestion, may you put menu on dropdown on top corner so we can move without pressing back again and again


Thank you

above and below the text following

whether Top apps appears depends on what you select of the top-most options.

If you're not bothered about content search, try one of the free search tools mentioned here - very very fast.
