Reminds me of when I tried to install Firefox on Ubuntu and it said it couldn't open the download as there was nothing associated with it. Ended up with another copy without an icon but it worked. Then I moved to Fedora which seemed to work as intended. Couldn't run Mint on this laptop as it boots to a black screen - presumably the wrong GPU. Daily Driver is Windows 10 by necessity.

Unlike us power users, many people like the web search.
Still the fact that this can be easily disabled with a single registry key is an advantage of Windows, not a detriment.
