PC Manager is a utility that Microsoft launched in 2022 to help you use Windows 10 and 11. It is currently as an alternative to the famous CCleaner. Therefore, the most recent version of the app gives them a special form of optimization: you use Bing as a browser on Edge.
A maintenance iron, but…
With PC Manager you can delete temporary files Safely free up space in RAM, enable or disable applications launched with the operating system, identify which active processes consume the most resources among other actions.
But, when it is suggested that you use Bing as a platform bus, it is impossible to assume that this is one of Microsoft's attempts to increase the user base of the service.
This behavior is linked to vehicles as well as Neowin eo Latest versions of Windows. Mas eu também fiz esse “flagrante”. While you open PC Manager on a computer with Windows 10, it is strongly recommended to “reset” the Edge configurations to set Bing as the keyboard.
It is possible to override this instruction by simply clicking “Skip” (“Pular”). But you need to go to the “Repair Tips” (“Repair Tips”) step, an instruction to set Bing as the browser of Microsoft Browser appears recently.
Is this a bug or a strategy?
For the first time we can detect the bug. But, since the recommendation to use Bing appears at least twice, the disappointment is such: it is a useful strategy to encourage support from Microsoft.
This is not a good practice. You can help yourself change without realizing it and, moments later, you have to wonder if Bing starts opening like Padrão on Edge if you use or search (probably Google).
After that, PC Manager continues to send a useful tool. Additionally, optimization resources are available for screenshots, notepad, calculator and voice recorder, for example.
You can also use it to enable Windows Antivirus, help refresh the operating system, redefine applications and other features. So be careful not to take into account everything the utility recommends.
