  2. Cortana search opens Internet Explorer instead of Microsoft Edge

    I searched something to the Cortana search bar and normally it should bring up Microsoft Edge right? But instead, it opens Internet Explorer. How do I fix this?

  3. Unwanted search bar on Microsoft Edge and Steam Browser

    Hi Noah,

    Thank you for posting in Community, we understand your concern and we will try our best to help you resolve the issue.

    I would suggest that you clear the data of Edge and check if the issue persist. To do so follow the steps below:

    • Navigate to the location:
    C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.MicrosoftEdge_8wekyb3d8bbw

    • Delete everything in this folder.
    • Restart Microsoft Edge and check.
    With respect to issue that you are facing with Steam I would suggest that you contact the developer as we do not support third part application.

    Hope this information helps.

    How to change the default search engine in Microsoft Edge

    These instructions are outdated- my Microsoft edge no longer has the "Add New" button for search engines

    Instead of I try to follow the instructions, there is only a button to change the search engines which then brings you to only two options - bing or youtube.

    If you uninstall Microsoft edge or try it with a new computer where you haven't saved any search engines like google for the search bar, you'll see what I see
