Microsoft has upgraded the Microsoft Insider Preview Dev channel with a new build 25120 and introduced widgets to the Desktop area. Devices enrolled in the Microsoft Insider Preview program will begin to see a search box on their Desktop, allowing them to search the web.
Outside of the Widgets panel, the Desktop Search box is the first such object to appear on the Desktop. Bing powers the desktop search box in Windows 11, which allows you to search the web, documents, and other content directly from your Desktop. When you begin typing your search term in the desktop search box, it will query Bing for possible suggestions and showcase them in the new tabs of Bing and Microsoft Edge. There is, however, no way to change the search engine or web browser. Even if this experimental feature makes it to the final version of Windows 11, we may not see them.
