I didn't even want the windows search results to include web links in the first place....

Thereโ€™s just a teeny tiny problem with that; disabling web search renders Search unable to do maths.

Itโ€™s not an issue for me since I use PowerToys to get Spotlight-esque search in Windows, but itโ€™s nevertheless hilarious.

macOS search is so much better than Windows search itโ€™s not even remotely close.

Yeah but does macOS search use it's own search engine to prop up user hit metrics and generate more ad revenue for Apple? I don't think so. Score 1 Microsoft, our corporate tyrant.

Thanks!

I haven't used the windows search since forever, but if I ever need it again I'll keep this is mind if I see the web results still bothering me.
