- Hi Steve and Mason,
I have Windows 10 and have been using the voice search on New Tab for years now no problem at all and mine has also disappeared completely recently - really infuriating!! Why on earth have they removed it??? I don't want to have to use the keyboard and press windows H every single time I wanna do a search, just click the microphone, instant! Yes I have the latest software installed. Please add your thoughts to the Microsoft comments page https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftedge/forum/all/the-microphone-icon-for-voice-search-has-been/f7234a2e-3b7a-4a81-86d4-be076109ec3e - you will see my comments there under the name 2Epic, and click at the top that you have the same problem.Thanks a lot guys!Well now the voice search on New Tabs was just removed from Edge on Windows 11 too!!! 😞
What is going on?Simply add a shortcut to Microsoft Start and the microphone and camera search work.
- I'm not sure, but you said it's available in Windows 11 for you so just update your computers to latest OS version
