  • Searching on the Start Menu is basically searching using Microsoft Assistant Cortana... and I'd quite sure Cortana will default to Edge/Bing as default.. and I don't know if you can change that. There are some 3rd party apps that claims it can do it.. but I can't recommend any. Your best workaround is to open Chrome and then do the search from within Chrome.

  • The issue is indeed that Cortana uses bing by default: howtogeek.com/226638/…

  • Cortana is the Search Engine while you have disabled the voice assistance the web functionality is still Cortana. Of course you made no mention of Cortana being disabled in your question body.

  • because there's any way of really disable Cortana. I just disabled the voice assistant, and other things I could via the registry, but when you press Win key it seems that is cortana who controls
