25H2 - Microsoft Store recommendations in search

I've been trying to remove Microsoft Store app recommendations from search results for a while now. I'm completely uninterested in them, and I'm also afraid of miss-clicking and installing bloatware.

What's already been done:
DisableSearchBoxSuggestions - 0 has been added to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Explorer
Internet search is disabled in Group Policies

Internet search is currently disabled, but I'm still getting annoying recommendations from the Microsoft Store (Everything that is under Jupyter in my screenshot). What else can I do to remove them from search results?

How to reproduce: Enter something in the Start search, for example, "Note"
