Question Bing uninstall Windows 11

[warbar61]

I want to uninstall bing through the registry. One method shows that a key for explorer is needed in the path. Another shows that that a key for share is needed. What is the safe way to create these ? Or a step by step guide would help. Windows 11 Home 23H2 Build 22631.4169 Ver 10.0.22631.

I do not know how to "uninstall Bing".

But before you start down this road, have a known good full drive backup, and know how to recover.
Poking around in the Reg can easily render this system unbootable.

Thanks for the reply. Been poking around in the Reg for years. I did come up with a solution.

I did not uninstall it, but I was happy with this. HKEY_CURRENT\USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows . On Windows New Key named "Explorer" Used "DisableSearchBoxSuggestions" with a value of 1. Of course it was not uninstalled but I am happy for that, for now. Winget and Get-Appx remove solutions did not work for me even though the latter did in Windows 10. Thanks again for your reply. In a hurry. Hope that I made some sense.
