While it is true you can turn the web searching feature off, that's far
from the point. Microsoft has publically stated that there will be no
more versions of Internet Explorer after the current version. App
developers (including desktop apps and universal apps can and probably
will use MS Edge as their built-in browsers instead of Explorer. I'm
sure this won't happen over night, but it's just another reason why it's
so important we are able to get access to Edge.
Just stating the facts.

i don't want it searching on the net when i am looking for a setting
on my computer. for now i still use firefox and google to do searches
on the net.
this is a so called windows improvement.
the windows search will also only use bing. no matter what default search
engine you have.
microsoft also wants to block the use of all web browsers except edge.
this is pland for the upgrade after july.

Subject: Searching from the start menu will now only launch Edge for
webresults
Speaking of Windows 10 and the need for Window-eyes support for Edge,
has any one noticed the following recent change? When you do a search
from the start menu and you press enter to search the web for your
result, it will now only bring up Edge regardless of what your default
web browser is. As far as I'm aware there is no way to change this
behavior.
