Have any of our readers received access to this new feature? Let us know your experience below. The feature is currently available in the Edge Canary browser for some. When not in use the search bar docks to the side of the display. Things got a bit messy in Windows 10, but recent updates have removed issues like Cortana from the feature, and the May 2019 update revamped the search interface, making your searches feel a bit more detailed and granular.

Vertical and Dashboard will focus on news and interests while the Search one will let users do Bing searches from anywhere(which open in the Edge browser). The Windows Start Menu search used to be simple tiles and Cortana did not get in the way of you perusing your PC for the files you want. It appears there will ultimately be 3 layouts available – vertical, dashboard and search only. Those lucky enough to have the feature available can activate it by going to Edge Menu> Toolbar and select Web Widget. Now WindowsLatest has revealed the presence of a new widget – a floating search toolbar that can float over other apps. We reported in February that Microsoft is testing new desktop widgets powered by the Edge browser, with some Edge users having access to a news and weather widget, which, much like the new taskbar news feed, delivers weather and news via Microsoft’s Bing service.
