“The Microsoft Search in Bing extension will not ship with Version 2002 of Office 365 ProPlus,” Microsoft said in an unsigned post to a company blog.
Late last month, Microsoft had quietly announced that it would change the default search engine of Google’s Chrome to Bing — Microsoft’s own search service — on personal computers running Office 365 ProPlus, the productivity applications that serve as the heart of enterprise-grade Office 365 subscriptions.
