Microsoft is trying to restore Bing as the default search engine on users’ browsers by spinning it as a “repair” through a utility app called PC Manager.
PC Manager is designed to boost a Windows PC’s performance by freeing up memory and eliminating unused apps and files. It offers “Health check” and “Repair tips” buttons, which users can click on to see the recommended actions.
However, Windows Latest noticed the app pushing a curious recommendation: Both Repair tips and Health check nudge you to restore Bing as the default search engine on the Edge browser.
Do you by chance have a link to what to install for a non tech user without linux knowledge?
https://www.linuxmint.com/ is an excellent place to start. If you have bleeding edge hardware there are better options though, as Linux Mint prioritizes stability over newer packages and drivers. Not a bad thing, just not the OS if your hardware is so new it needs a very new set of packages or kernel to work properly.
I eventually landed on https://get.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/ which has been very good to me over the last couple months.
There are instructions on the sites for how to use Linux from a USB drive, so you don’t even have to install them or overwrite your current OS to give them a whirl.
Thanks! My laptop is from 2020. Decent but not top of the line by today’s standard. I hope to be the newest Linux convert!
