How do I get rid of the trending search bar in Windows 10?

Answered by Jarrod Smith

To remove the trending search bar in Windows 10, you can follow these steps:

1. Right-click on an empty space on your taskbar. This will bring up a context menu with various options.

2. From the context menu, select the “Search” option. This will expand the search menu and display additional settings.

3. In the expanded search menu, you will see an option called “Show search box”. If it is checked, click on it to uncheck it. This will remove the search box from your taskbar.

4. After unchecking the “Show search box” option, you will notice that the search box is no longer visible on your taskbar. The space previously occupied by the search box will now be empty.

By following these steps, you can easily get rid of the trending search bar and reclaim the space on your taskbar for other purposes.

It’s worth mentioning that removing the search box from the taskbar does not disable the search functionality in Windows 10. You can still access the search feature by pressing the Windows key on your keyboard or by clicking on the Start button and typing your search query directly.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.
