Microsoft has confirmed the rollout of Windows 11 version 26H2, with build 26300.8697 now available for testing in the experimental Insider channel. This version will be delivered through an enablement package over the existing Windows 11 25H2. A key feature is the enhancement to the Search functionality, prioritizing local file search over web results, with the option to disable web suggestions in settings. Users can enable the new Search experience using feature IDs: 61267302, 61344081, 61482515, 61532758, 61760679, and ensuring ID 48433719 is enabled. Steps to enable the new Search functionality include downloading ViveTool, using Command Prompt to enable the relevant IDs, and restarting the computer. Users have reported improved responsiveness in the Search feature after disabling web search.
