I’ve never had that issue on Professional editions of Windows 10 or 11. Home edition? Maybe. But Pro lets you override almost anything you want with group security policies.
I also rely on group policies. they do get reverted. o&o shutup10 has a feature to detect it and point that out, and I see it almost every time I open it. I use it rarely per machine, but I use it on multiple machines and each does this.
then sometimes the setting is just ignored. I was baffled when the policy to disable the start menu automatic bing search -which basically uploads all your local searches to microsoft bing - did not work, even after 2 reboots. I think it was this year, perhaps the last one
Damn, that sucks. It’s been forever since I set that one so I checked and it looks like I’m using the registry edit method for that particular one. My start menu has looked like this for as long as I can remember so I’m not sure what’s keeping it from changing with updates. searching for anything not on my local system results in ‘no results found’
edit I am using OOSU10 but unless it has some auto-reset feature then it isn’t what’s keeping my changes in place through upgrades. I’m even on the beta channel for windows.
