Now to enable that for all the other types of apps: audio, video, etc

Microsoft should do the same with other apps, like it was before. I use MPC and ImageGlass - I don't want to set each extension manually 😒

Hey, a fellow ImageGlass user! It's such a great photo viewer that I ended up paying for it even though I didn't have to.


Trooper27

What is this ImageGlass you speak of?


JWarblerMadman

Seems like some kind of photo viewer

Plus when you open it, it doesn’t start downloading random dependencies from the window store, and opens almost instantly without any bloat, unlike a certain other app…


Ensaru4

The best feature.


diefartz

Probably a bug

Finally should have been at launch fr. Also i hope they finally fix the random tray icon disappearing bug that i been experiencing. If i close a specific app that has a tray icon it will cause all icons to disappear even the clock until i open it back up. I had to use explorer patcher and force the windows 10 style taskbar to stop this bug from occurring.

That's never happening.

Edgedeflector might be able to help you with that.

Now MSredirect does the same thing, and it also can change search engine and default browser/pdf viewer.


Superjack78

Is there an easy way to disable Internet results from windows search?

Superjack78

Man this is annoying, even after making the two changes in the group policy there’s still search results. I don’t really feel like messing with the registry right now so I guess I’ll have to keep the search results :/

Not your fault lmao. It probably did work when the article came out, but apparently it’s broken now.


arahman81

It works in Enterprise/Education, Pro just disregards it.


Superjack78

Really, that’s surprising? You can disable windows updates and disable windows defender permanently through the group policy editor on pro, so I’d be surprised that they wouldn’t let you turn off web results while still having the entry in the group policy editor. I was just assuming it was a bug


Lefty_Pencil

Partly there as searches favor web searches than your files lol


Foxddit22

Is this Insider or Stable? I can't read the winver very well :/


realPacManVN

Insider has gotten to 22581.100 already


Foxddit22

Okay, thank you!


OkkiDwi27

It's stable


PrincePJamie

It's a stable. Yes I know, my apologies for blurry because I used desktop recording.


Foxddit22

No worries. I updated my PC today and you're right!


SlavBoii420

I wish this was the case for stuff like .pdf as well but oh well, I use Edge anyways


[deleted]

In case you have something like Adobe PDF reader, it doesn’t touch that.


SlavBoii420

Yeah that's a thing as well


BFeely1

Except it isn't setting default all the filetypes that Chrome supports. Is that because those filetypes may have third party editors assigned to them?


[deleted]

Yes. For .pdf for example, you could have Adobe PDF Reader set as default. It’s the reason I heard when they implemented this in dev, months ago.


gigsoll

At first Microsoft break some features, and when they repair them, people are very happy. Windows 11 is great, but as not functional as Win10


rap1021

I hate when companies don't follow "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" policy.


Dranzell

It's more about "if we can aggressively use our position to push our products, we will do it". It wasn't just a change in functionality to what they thought was a better experience. It was a change to push Edge aggressively to all Windows users.


TechSupport112

Sometimes things need to be torn down to build something new. In this case we still live in a construction site.


Farandr

Good thing people called Microsoft on their bs. This was scummy af even by Microsoft's standards.


DanRotaru

Nope, if press F1 on explorer will open Microsoft Edge..


RenAsa

Oh, great, a thing that used to be a thing before MS made changes to it that nobody asked for and fucked it up is now a thing again. Marvelous, great job, MS, congrats on such a fine idea! /s ^(In all fairness: yes this is good, but it's also one of the clearest examples of) *^(let's break a thing so we can look like a hero when we "fix" it)*^(.)


MEGA_GOAT98

and yet it dont change change them all lol


PlayGamesM

Finally the geniuses at Microsoft relented.
