Uninstall Bing? When did Bing become an installable thing?
They probably mean your browser/search engine settings will actually be respected, instead of what sometimes happens now where you can have set everything to not use bing or edge but still certain MS software will launch a search in edge, using bing.
Wow, that's a hellscape straight out of 2008.
It's probably not about that, but Bing is actually integrated in the start/search menu by default.
