When we search for something in the Windows 10 start menu, if there is nothing that results on the computer, it is recommended to search the Internet. Esto se hace utilizando Bing how Search Engine principal. In this aspect. Even though it is likely that there are users who do not want this to happen. Then you can disable the use of Bing on your computer. If you want to know what to do, the steps are explained below.

Since we have the ability to disable this option in Windows 10. Even though in this case you have to use the registry editor, which can be a somewhat more complicated step for some users. But we show you everything to do about it below.

Yes, Ok all the changes that we are going to make below are reversible, so they do not present any problem. This is undoubtedly one of the great advantages that we have in Windows 10. Since everything we do, in general, can be undone again in the future. So we can modify many aspects of the operating system at will. For this case, it is Bing's turn in this start menu.

Disable Bing in the Windows 10 start menu

The first thing you have to do in this case is to open the Windows 10 registry editor. To do this, we enter the term regedit in the search bar on the computer's start menu. Later, an option will appear in that list, which is the registry editor. Later we click on that option to open it on the screen. So that we can start this procedure on the computer.

Inside the registry editor we must head to a specific route, como es frecuente en estos casos. Por tanto, lo mejor es introducir la dirección de forma directa en la barra superior de la misma. La dirección que tenemos que tener acceso para este caso particular es la próxima: HKEYCURRENTUSER SOFTWARE Microsoft Windows CurrentVersion Search, la cual puedes copiar sin demasiados problemas en la barra del editor de tu computadora con Windows 10. Al copiar, enseguida nos plantamos en la carpeta donde tenemos que estar para poder seguir, que es lo que nos interesa.

When we are in said search folder, we must click on New and then choose the DWORD (32 bits) option. What this means is that we are creating a new registry entry. So, we have to give this entry a name, which for this case will be BingSearchEnabled. The name that we have to give it is not optional, since in this aspect we are referring to the searches that are carried out with Bing. It is exactly these searches that we want to disable on the PC. So we have to access this name in the input.

Later we double click on BingSearchEnabled, so that we can edit its value. Later a window opens on the screen, where we have a section called Value information, where we can put the number we want to give to that value. As you probably already guessed, we have to put a number 0. Lo normal es que be el número que pone Windows 10 por defecto, pero no está de más chequear que ha sido así. En caso de que no fuera así, tenemos que poner ese 0.

Later we also have to do the same with CortanaConsent, which is already created. We must put the value 0, so that we prevent the assistant from doing this type of search with Bing when we use it in Windows 10. Later, we give it to accept and we only have to restart the PC. So that all the changes we have made are saved. In this way, these searches with Bing are disabled on your computer.
