Microsoft is about to let users turn off one of the most annoying features on Windows 11.Currently, whenever a PC user wants to perform a local search for files on their computer, Windows 11 also pulls up Bing-powered web search results. In fact, many times, users have reported that the search function prioritizes web results over local results.The best example of this issue came from a viral post on X last year when a user looking to pull up the terminal in Windows 11 was instead provided with a web search result for the 2018 Margot Robbie film Terminal.
