How to revert Windows 11 search bar font to old style?
Microsoft updated the search bar font in Windows 11, and I dislike the new one. How can I change it back to the old font?

If the font change really bothers you:
- Go back to a previous Insider build (if still within rollback window)
- Or switch to Dev/Beta/Stable channel
This is honestly the only 100% reliable way to get the old look back.

Modify the Font value under
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Search using the Registry Editor
or use a third-party tool to restore the old search bar style.
