Ads aside, I see they’re making the terrible mistake Apple Music made by blurring the distinction between your own content, and promoted content.

If you’re searching for files I recommend Eveything.

It's exclusively a local tool, isn't it? You can index a network share but the index still is local and has to be done for each user, right?

Looking for a simple (preferably FOSS) tool to index file shares for a handful of users at their own PCs.

Fabulous, I miss it on MacOS

There is a reg key to add that disables bing search.

What I fucking hate, is that I exclusively use the start menu to start apps I've installed, but typing in the name of an app doesn't show the installed app at all, just fucking ads. They literally took away the only functionality of the start menu unless I do a very intuitive method of reverting it.

Ooh, do share with the class!

Ha, what a delightful way to share! Figured it would be easy enough to Internet search, but this way, others reading the thread will be more inclined to enable it when it is just right in the conversation.

Edit: Holy crap, this finally got rid of the weird start menu lag where it used to be "hit win key, type fir, launch firefox" to "hit win key....start menu freezes with no typing, a second modal window floats above it, sometimes in arbitrary locations on the screen (likely because I told Edge to not run in the background ever so it always cold-starts) then "fir" appears there, or sometimes "ir" or sometimes "r" or sometimes nothing." Just to run a program.

I saw this meme and saved it in my notes for later. It seemed the easiest way to share

Thank gods I'm able to use Linux for my work PC. Group policy and enterprise config can only hide so much of Windows's BS.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 6 months ago (1 children)

If it opened on the default browser it would be several times less infuriating, but clicking on anything by mistake and then waiting for Edge to open with all the prompts because you never use it makes me furious

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago

No wonder people are jumping through hoops to delete Edge. Condolences, that's a lot of bullshit on a machine you own.

Is that the Windows 11 search menu?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 6 months ago (1 children)

This is the start menu when you type a search.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago (2 children)

So, like, the search button on the taskbar?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 6 months ago

No, the start menu. This is what happens when you click the windows start menu now.
