Microsoft plans to update Windows 11 to block a fix that has allowed users to open Start menu search results in a browser other than Edge. This was initially achieved by Edge Deflector, an application that allows you to bypass some of the browser restrictions built into the operating system itself found in Windows 10 and 11. Before this week, companies like Mozilla and Brave had planned to implement similar workarounds to allow users to open results in their respective browsers in the start menu, but now they won't be able to.
At first it seemed that Microsoft had mistakenly prevented people from choosing another browser. However, he recently confirmed that he had done it on purpose.
"Windows openly enables applications and services on its platform, including various web browsers, " said a Microsoft spokesperson. “At the same time, Windows also offers certain end-to-end client experiences in both Windows 10 and Windows 11, the search experience from the taskbar is an example of an end-to-end experience that is not designed to be redirected. When we noticed an incorrect redirect, we issued a solution."
Daniel Aleksandersen, the developer of Edge Deflector, was quick to criticize the move. "These are no longer the actions of an attentive company that cares about its product," he said in a blog post. “Microsoft is not a good administrator of the Windows operating system. They are prioritizing ads, packages and service subscriptions over their users' productivity. ”This criticism has been joined by other authors such as the developers of Mozilla Firefox.
