This tutorial will show you how to enable or disable the Visual Search context menu in Microsoft Edge for your account in Windows 10 and Windows 11.
Visual Search is a feature in Microsoft Edge that lets you search for images on Bing.
Visual Search lets you quickly explore more related content about entities in an image.
Visual Search is available by default via image hover menu, context menu, and Alt+Shift+S keyboard shortcut.
You can turn on or off Show Visual Search in context menu if wanted.
EXAMPLE: Visual Search on context menu in Microsoft Edge
Here's How:
1 Open Microsoft Edge.
2 Click/tap on the Setting and more (Alt+F) 3 dots button, and click/tap on Settings. (see screenshot below)
3 Perform an available action below: (see screenshot below)
- (Old) Click/tap on Appearance in the left pane, click/tap on Context menus under "Other appearance settings", and click/tap on Hover menu.
- (New) Click/tap on Appearance in the left pane, and click/tap on Browser behavior and features under "Other appearance settings".
If you do not see a left pane, then either click/tap on the 3 bars menu button towards the top left OR widen the horizontal borders of the Microsoft Edge window until you do.

That's it,
