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
  • Prevent indexing Microsoft Office Outlook -> Enabled
