Search Bar/Cortana

Hello,

Thank you for posting your concern here in Microsoft Community and welcome to the Windows 10 family.

From the description, I understand that you are still receiving the pop up notifications, despite having disabled the search functionality in windows 10.

Steps to disable the Search Bar

• Right click on the task bar.
• Select the "Search" option.
• Select "Disable."

However, if the above steps don't work out, perform the below suggested steps and check if it helps to resolve the issue.

Open a CMD window started as Administrator.

Repair corruption: Dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth.

Run this command next: Sfc /scannow

Now run these two commands:

PowerShell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted

Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers |Where-Object {$_.InstallLocation -like "*SystemApps*"} | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

Hope the above information was helpful.

Thank You.

 

Disable new search bar in Office 365

Strange behavior here. I removed the RegKeys yesterday and started Outlook. Search bar was at old location. Happy!
But after reboot today the serch bar reappears on top. Did the steps again and again, even with permissions change but can't get the search bar back to the old location. My Outlook Version is 2008. Why isn't it working any more?

 

Was there a search bar update today?



This is what mine looks like after they updated. When I set up mine I never had the news feed showing up. I didn't need it.
