  2. how to remove bing

    Hi NCA666,

    My name is Roger W, an independent advisor trying to help. Let's try with the following suggestions, please:

    Step 1:

    Steps for removing Bing from search bar:

    1. In Search type “Cortana & Search Settings” and hit enter.

    2. You will have to find “Search online and include web results” feature and toggle the switch to disable it.

    Note: Set the switch to “Off” state.

    3. Reboot the Windows 10 device and your Bing search bar should be disabled.

    Step 2:

    Steps for removing Bing from the Browser.

    Open Internet Explorer and click on the Gear icon.

    Click on the ‘Manage add-ons’ option.

    Click on ‘Search Providers’ which is on left pane.

    Right click on ‘Bing’ where is listed under the ‘Name:’ column.

    Click on ‘Remove’ from the drop-down menu.

    Keep us posted if you face any issues on windows in future. We will be glad to help you.

    Let us know if the solution above works for you.

    Irritating programs that I can't remove - Bing and Magix popups

    Thank you all for the suggestions.
    I tried JayCee's link first and just following the first few steps on that sorted the issue. Bing no longer loads on start-up. Time will show if I have disabled anything else!
    I then looked at Dalchina's suggestion - The Task Bar did not show any Edge entries so I assume the earlier change have stopped this.
    Just to round off on suggestions - I have made disk images in past but in practice I never used them to rebuild, usually because they were too old and most things would need updating anyway. But I agree they could make life easier if I rebuilt every few months. I do so every 18 - 24 months.
