| 1460240 | 2019-04-29 22:18:00 | Went to change the search engine on this system but there is no advanced setting. Checked my gaming system & it is the same. Both systems are 1809. Is this something new? |

| 1460242 | 2019-04-30 00:43:00 | One subtle difference in Edge is that after you have set your the new choice of search engine in settings Bing will still present it's search bar in the middle of the page. The new search engine you have selected operates by typing your query in the address bar at the top. | CliveM (6007) | ||
| 1460243 | 2019-04-30 03:22:00 | Thanks guys, found it. Have set the start page, home page and search engine to google. However, when opening a new tab it still defaults to Bing. Not that I have a problem with Bing, but would prefer google. |

| 1460244 | 2019-04-30 04:03:00 | Thanks guys, found it. However, when opening a new tab it still defaults to Bing.. No it does not. If you type your query in the address space the search engine you preselected is used. Bing does appear lower down on the page but you do not have to use it. |

| 1460245 | 2019-04-30 07:06:00 | You are correct and I thank you | Driftwood (5551) | ||
| 1460246 | 2019-04-30 19:33:00 | You are correct and I thank you :) MS is trying to con everyone to use Bing but I find Google better for anything that is of local interest. |

| 1460247 | 2019-04-30 21:53:00 | Bing is hopeless, even when searching for MS content I get more relevant results from Google. If I was to use anything else it would be something like Duck Duck Go for the privacy. It's a large part of why I've ignored cortana, she's gimped by a terrible search engine. |
