Add / Remove Programs - Cannot Uninstall Microsoft Bing Search

I have a brand new laptop.

First thing that I always do when setting it up is I delete the unwanted programs that I do not need.

I noticed that somehow "Microsoft Bing Search" was installed on my computer a few hours later.

When I go to Add / Remove Programs, I click on "Microsoft Bing Search" to uninstall it and it won't let me.

When I click on "Uninstall", it is just gray.

Can someone please help me to uninstall this?

Thanks in advance.

    Hello, my name is Anis. I'll be glad to help you today.

    I understand the issue you are facing. Let me inform you that Microsoft Bing is an integral part of Windows 11 24H2.

    It is a system App. Microsoft Bing is integrated with the Windows search bar.

    Hence, it cannot be Uninstalled from the system.
