    Microsoft is working on changing the look of the Search button available on the Taskbar of Windows 11. The visual refresh already made its appearance in the latest Windows 11 build 25136 in the dev channel.

    The improved Search button in Windows 11 will alter the behavior and appearance of search control in the taskbar. According to reports from various Insider running the same build, they’re seeing different varieties of search buttons.

    For some users, a small text box with the message ‘Search’ appears (We’re seeing this one). The other group is seeing a big box labeled “Search the web”. Another group of insiders has the updated search button. The majority of Windows Insiders still see the current search box. (If you made upto this blog post, then you’re one out of them for sure).

    You can check out different variants of Search in the screenshot below:

    In case, you’re not a fan of any of the Search button variants discussed above and would like to stick with the current one, then here’s how you can disable the new search button in Windows 11 Taskbar.

    As discussed above, you need to launch Windows Terminal with admin rights.

    Next, you need to execute this command: c:\vivetool\vivetool.exe /disable /id:39072097
