I like all the cool search lenses (like github and wikipedia), but I want to control if/when dash initiates an online search. Is there a way to limit that to only when I explicitly click on that lense's icon at the bottom of the dash overlay?

  • Or alternatively, is there a way to disable a lens on a per-user basis (user configurable, rather than system-wide)? That way you could have a second account that you use for your more sensitive activities, and disable search lenses only on that account. Tried searching briefly for this, didn't find anything.

One easy way is to hit super F for the (local) Files lens, or super A for the (local) Apps lens.

  • Not a bad idea. It probably performs better, too, since it's searching fewer lenses, so it's a good technique even without the search privacy concern.
