Bing search not working in Microsoft Edge
Because Bing Search is not working only in Microsoft Edge, we cannot blame the internet connection. Hence, the problem is associated with Microsoft Edge. Let’s see what fixes you can use to resolve this problem.
- Are you using the latest version of Microsoft Edge?
- Clear cache and cookies in Edge
- Check for problematic extensions
- Repair or reset Microsoft Edge
Below, we have explained all these fixes in detail.
1] Are you using the latest version of Microsoft Edge?
First of all, make sure that you are using the latest version of Microsoft Edge. An outdated version of Edge can cause problems. Updating Edge to the latest version is an easy process. Follow the steps written below:
- Open Microsoft Edge.

- Edge will start checking for available updates.
If the updates are available, Edge will install them and ask you to restart Edge when completed.
2] Clear cache and cookies in Edge
One possible cause of the problem you are facing is the corrupted cache and cookies. Clear cache and cookies in Microsoft Edge and see if it helps. You can use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Shift + Delete for the same.
3] Check for problematic extensions
Problematic extensions can cause many issues in web browsers. If the above two fixes did not help, the cause of your problem may be linked with an extension. To check this, launch Edge in InPrivate Mode. Press Ctrl + Shift + N to enter InPrivate Mode in Edge.
Extensions do not work in private mode in all web browsers. Therefore, if the problem is occurring due to an extension, Bing Search should work in InPrivate Mode in Edge. If this works, your next step is to identify the culprit extension. To do so, follow the steps written below:

Repeat the above steps until you find the problematic extension. According to some affected users, the problem was occurring due to an ad blocker extension.
