| 1461260 | 2019-06-06 08:52:00 | For those of you who have updated to Win 10 1903, do you see "Web" listed as an option in the Search feature? I used to always get web suggestions when I typed something in the search field in 1809 but now I don't, and I see I'm missing "Web" as an option. Web is listed across the top for a friend of mine, but as he lives in the USA, his language, location & region are different. This is what I'm talking about (hopefully this image will attach): 9694 I've been through my settings and I can't see what I've missed that should allow it. Tried asking a few friends & family but I'm the only Windows user who has updated so far, so having to ask Press F1 peeps. Google searches only turned up results for disabling rather than enabling web search, and nothing for 1903. |

| 1461263 | 2019-06-06 22:57:00 | It is not showing here either but I cannot see the problem just open the browser of your choice and search the web if that is what is required. | CliveM (6007) | ||

| 1461265 | 2019-06-07 05:36:00 | Thanks folks. I have discovered that if I change "Country or Location" from NZ to Australia in the "Region" setting then "Web" appears as an option in search, and produces web results. If I switch back to NZ as my location, "Web" disappears again. Everything else like the time zone and all the language settings can stay as NZ/ English (New Zealand), it's just the location or country that needs to be something other than NZ (probably places where Cortana is supported, not that I use Cortana....) @ CliveM & 1101 - totally take your point. It's not a biggie at all to open a browser if I want web search results rather than local files, in fact that is normally what I do anyway. And Bing isn't my search engine of choice, nor is edge my browser of choice. It's rare that I use the search field for something other than what's on my PC. It was mainly just that I wanted to check my installation wasn't corrupted and I wasn't missing something I should have (and if I was, what else is absent/broken that should be there....) Thanks for responding. |
