Microsoft has announced that it will install a new Google Chrome extension for some Office 365 ProPlus customers that will force the browser to use Bing as the default search engine “to access relevant workplace information directly from the browser address bar.” From a report: The Microsoft Search in Bing extension will be added to all new Office 365 ProPlus installations and when updating to newer releases. The only customers that won’t have this Chrome extension installed automatically are those that already have set Bing as their default Chrome search engine. “Microsoft Search is part of Microsoft 365 and is turned on by default for all Microsoft apps that support it,” Microsoft says. “Even after Bing is made the default search engine, your users can still change to a different default search engine in Google Chrome on their own.”
