Kelly_Y Hi 🙂
Is that correct?
That's right - thank you for confirming.
Do you have the default search provider set to something other than Bing?
I do yes. I've removed Bing from the list of search engines under Settings > Privacy, search and services > Address bar and search > Manage search engines
(to test it has been removed, made sure it is not within the list, screenshot 1)
Also, can you share what version of MS Edge you are using? Thanks!
I mainly use Version 96.0.1032.0 (Official build) dev (64-bit) day-to-day however this behaviour also occurs within Version 94.0.992.47 (Official build) (64-bit).
Let me know if I can help any further.
