`Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Search`
Very confusing, you need to consult https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/privacy/manage-connections-from-windows-operating-system-components-to-microsoft-services#21-cortana-and-search-group-policies
"Do not allow web search" looks old and probably deprecated, but Microsoft's docs still mention it for some reason. Thus, I am also going over other similar old settings for safe measure.
- Allow Cloud Search -> Disabled
- Allow Cortana -> Disabled
- ALlow search and Cortana to use location -> Disabled
- Configures search on the taskbar -> Enabled -> Search icon and label (Not a privacy/security issue or anything, but I hate the gigantic box)
- Do not allow web search -> Enabled
- Don't search the web or display web results in Search -> Enabled
- Enable indexing of online delegate mailboxes -> Disabled

- Turn off display of recent search entries in the File Explorer search box -> Enabled (**EXTREMELY INVASIVE**. This stores your search history in the registry according to the docs, and is also responsible for the Bing search in the Start Menu just like the policies in Search even though the description does not mention it.)
