Windows: we noticed that you kept the useless search bar disabled since 2015, so we sent an update that re-enabled it without your permission

For my "convenience" and because in this way they can show ads and clickbait

Also: I SET A FUCKING GROUP POLICY THAT DISABLES THE SEARCH BAR; WHY THEY FUCKING IGNORE IT???

Is the source code available for that anywhere? I wasn't able to find it after a quick look over the website.

Just search "O&O shutup 10" exactly like it is in the quotations

https://www.oo-software.com/en/shutup10

That doesn't answer the question, they asked if it's open source. I agree, I don't want to replace one sketchy data-harvesting service with another, I'd be a lot more comfortable giving shutup10 control of my system if it was on github or gitlab.
