"Bing New Tab Background" extension it has the ability to change search provider- the new tab search engine won't change like old Edge and Chrome browser. it only applies to address bar. Changing new tab MIGHT come out in Edge store if people make..
mittalyashu The Search provider you change applies to the top Address bar. The lower new tab search bar does the search through Bing always. This was there in the old Edge also.

Changing the default Search Engine doesn't presently affect the New Tab Page Search. There is presently no means to change that. I will pass along your request to be able to change that.Gabriel
- Same issue in new edge browser
I'd also like this feature: changing the address bar search engine should also change the New Tab Page search engine.
Having Bing set as the default is all right, but the ability to change both would really seal the deal on the New Tab Page. Otherwise, I'm waffling on using it long-term.
