I freaked out yesterday when I got this pop up too. Like, okay, I heard about ads in Windows 11, but stay the fuck out of my 10.
Welcome to greedy corpo world.
These popups have disappeared from my devices for over 3 years but then again i'm using linux
I've never seen this appear. Is this in chrome? Anyway, like some people here have suggested, you can use a debloater script or something similar. I personally use O&O Shutup10. Hopefully enabling some options in there would work. Or you could just accept it and then change your search engine back to whatever you use lol.
Perhaps use redirect scripts or plugins or apps. Windows often about registry so do try that.
I don't know what people are doing in Windows to get all these ads. I've never seen a single one.
