Is that a Preview Update? I don't install Preview Updates so I might see it after the upcoming June "Patch Tuesday"?

lol... I still haven't seen this "new" Start Menu on any of the 3 desktop PC's I have here. I suppose I should be thankful for small mercies.

I still haven't seen the "new" Start Menu on any of the 3 desktop PC's I have here (one is "unsupported"). I know I can make it appear if I want to (I have the Registry file here to do it) but I've been waiting to see how long it would take if I just left it alone. I do find it quite bizarre...

Meanwhile, here in Australia (after the 150 update). I'll pass, thanks.

I still don't know why these YouTube videos about all the problems with Windows 11 nearly always show Bill Gates? "Bill Gates Furious About The Big Drop In Windows 11 Users" was one I saw recently. And there's many, many more similar YouTube titles. As far as I know, Bill Gates has had nothing...

When Windows 11 was first released there was a simple Registry edit which restored the Windows 10 Start Menu (one of many things which shows Windows 11 is actually just Windows 10 with a bit of a... umm... 'facelift'). I don't know if it was this particular edit or another one. Of course, as...

Going to be even harder on my 3 desktop PC's. In addition to what you've done I've also blocked Edge updates in the Hosts File and blocked the Edge executable in Program Files (x86) > Microsoft > Edge > Application from accessing the Internet with OneClickFirewall. One day when I'm bored I...

The only "peculiar" thing I've noticed about the new Start Menu is the fact that I still haven't seen it yet - on all 3 of my desktop PC's. I know I can get it with a Registry file I have here but I'm curious to see exactly how long it will take if I wait for it to appear through Windows...

I've had this happen repeatedly on 3 desktop PC's here. I finally got tired of fighting it so now I completely ignore Edge (I only used it for the rare occasion where a website didn't work with Firefox). I've made sure all Settings in Edge are turned off, removed all Edge shortcuts, made sure...

Hehe. This is the result of the Registry file I mentioned here. DuckDuckGo is now the default (and only) search engine in Edge (latest version). :-)

I seem to have stumbled across some sort of solution to the problems I'd mentioned earlier but it still doesn't make a lot of sense to me, especially since it happened on 2 individual desktop PC's that I'd just rebuilt (I had everything except cases until recently) and reinstalled Windows 11 on...

I don't really have the time or patience to test this but I wonder if it has something to do with my default (and only) Search Engine being DuckDuckGo? Some time back MS decided to remove all search engine options except Bing in Edge and someone posted a Registry file - I think it might have...

This really is bizarre. After I open and close Edge 2 or 3 times it 'reverts' back to the ad ridden mess (which is actually the "On Startup - Open the new tab page" in Settings) because my "Custom Site" - DuckDuckGo disappears and my 2 extensions also disappear again. The extensions really...

I did a clean install of Windows 11 Professional on this PC a few weeks back and twice since then Edge has "helpfully" removed my Start Page (DuckDuckGo) and replaced it with the ad ridden mess in the attached images, the lower one is what I see after closing the "Personalize your feed..." box...

Same RAM at another place: Kingston FURY BEAST RGB Black 128GB (4x32GB) 5600MHz DDR5 "Only" $2769 there (limited to 2 per household - I assume they mean 2 lots of 4 sticks, not 2 sticks). :lmao:
