Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

CTOnews.com, November 23, the recently released Windows 11 build 25247 has a controversial feature that has unnerved a considerable number of Windows Insiders. CTOnews.com has learned that users have been unhappy with Microsoft cramming more and more ads into its operating system, exacerbated by the addition of website recommendations to the start menu in the latest Windows 11 build 25247.

Fortunately, like other experimental features of the development channel, users can remove site recommendations from the start menu in Windows 11 build 25247. All that is needed is the Vivetool application and a command that also allows the user to change the number of recommended Web sites (two or one).

How to disable Web site recommendations in Windows 11 build 25247 (note that before using the ViveTool application to enable the hiding option, back up important data. ):

1. Download ViveTool from GitHub and extract the file.

2. Press Win + X and select Terminal (Admin).

3. Press Ctrl + Shift + 2 or click the arrow down button at the top of the window to switch the Windows terminal to the command prompt configuration file.

4. Use the CD command to navigate to the folder containing the extracted files. For example, if you have copied ViveTool to C:\ Vive, enter CD C:\ Vive.

Enter vivetool/disable/id:40059556 and press enter.

6. If the recommended website feature is not available, you can try to use the vivetool / enable / id:40059556 command to force it. In addition, the vivetool/disable/id:40059556/variant:3 command can change the number of recommended sites from one to two.

Restart the file manager or the entire system.
