    It is the third tab over from the right.

    It works on both W10 and W11. And it also gets rid of
    copilot 365 and Recall.

    +1

    +1 as well.

    However, there's _something_ that happened about the same time I
    installed/ran shutup: Edge (browser) stopped pre-filling URLs as I type
    them, with ones starting with the same start that I'd been to before.
    Not a _great_ problem - I rarely manually type a URL, using either
    bookmarks or links - but I'd like it back if I can. If it _was_
    something in shutup, what was it?

    I don't know the answer.
