Windows Search is learning to do things, not just find them

Windows Search does not have the best press, especially since it searches web and uses Bing 🤣 Nobody ever wanted that, because why would you? 🤣

Now Microsoft is trying to make it more useful by letting you perform actions directly from the search box, if it works as intended it could be actually something useful. I like the ‘change to dark theme’ example 😊

Combining this with ability to now turn off web search, maybe one day Windows Search will actually become a useful tool 🤣
