Comment on 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

  ah i got that too!! I thought it was because monday i updated foxit reader and then for some reason it gave back the default to edge! Instead it was edge that took it back by force without my consent!

    foxit reader

    That’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time. I didn’t realise it was still around!

      i’m up to using any alternative that isn’t adobe or edge as my default :)

      I tried sumatrapdf but while was extremely fast to start, it was too “simple” for me, i need better printing support

      i don’t really like foxit reader, they try to push a demo install of the pro version on each update

        You should try Okular. It’s on the Microsoft Store.

  Search for ‘change default apps’ and move it back to your favorite program, or right click the pdf -> properties -> change program

    Thanks but I fixed it. I do appreciate you mentioning this in case others encounter it.

    Just you know, I shouldn’t have to do it. I don’t need Microsoft to help me with edging.
