hi

I want to ask how to change "Search Bing for ......." (right-click search) to other search engines.

I have change my search on the address bar to other search engines and before the update, (that i dunno when it turns to this) this right-click search will be the same as the address bar setting.

after update, It turn into bing and sidebar search. here is a picture.

I must apologize if the meaning of the sentence is unclear. i did my best to texting in English.

Best regards.

Microsoft Edge | Tabs, address bar, and search | Windows 10

    I don't think he means the the sidebar

    I understand. I don't see any mention of Sidebar in either screenshot, so that was an oversight on my part. 

    I still see the former options:

    Now I'm keen to learn why some users are seeing a new set of options on the context menu.

    1. Are you using the latest version of Edge (I currently have 90.0.818.62)?
    2. What is your preferred search provider (mine is Google?
    3. Do you have News and interests on your taskbar (I don't)?

    Hi TT. I'm Greg, an Independent Advisor.

    Check that the default Search engine wasn't changed to Bing, too:

    If it's Google, then change it to something else, restart Edge, then change it back to Google and restart PC. Is Google back on right click context? Are you getting Google search in address bar?

    If not reset new Edge in Edge Settings > Reset Settings

    3. I do not have News and Interests on my taskbar.

    Thanks. I'm sorry that that seems to have been a red herring. I now have News and interests but I'm still not seeing the fault you and some others are experiencing. 

    I hope you (and others reading this) have submitted feedback so the devs have a greater chance of pinpointing the cause.
