Whenever I search anything in Windows 10 (⊞ Win > Start Typing), Windows shows web results (from Bing) on the top, even if I have a file with the exact name as the search term, or the search term matches the text a file. This is very annoying as I have to press ▽ and then Enter ←l every time I need to open something quickly. It does not even search the files and folders properly and shows some really useless web results.
I searched the web for instructions on disabling web results from Windows search, but they were either "patched" by Microsoft, or required Local Group Policy Editor (GPEdit.msc), which Windows 10 Home doesn't have. I tried to download it, but Microsoft's website has this, which is for Windows XP/Windows Server 2003.
Can web results from Windows 10 search be disabled in Windows 10 Home without GPEdit?
If not, how can I get GPEdit in Windows 10 Home?
