How to turn off SafeSearch in Google and Bing.
SafeSearch is a feature provided by search engines such as Google and Bing to filter out explicit content in search results. While it can be useful for some users, others may prefer to turn it off to access more comprehensive results. Here’s how you can turn off SafeSearch on popular search engines:
How to turn off SafeSearch in Google?
- Open Google in your web browser
- Click on “Settings” which can be seen in the form of a gear icon.
- Select “Search settings” from the drop-down menu
- Find the “SafeSearch filters” section and select “Do not filter my search results”
- Click “Save” to apply the changes
The second method is quite easy. Search any query in Google and then go to images. You will see the SafeSearch option in the upper right corner as shown in the image:

Turn SafeSearch off in Bing

The second method is to search for a query in bing.com and then go to images same as we have done in the case of Google. In the upper right corner, you will see a safe search option.

It is important to note that turning off SafeSearch may expose you to explicit content, so use caution when searching for sensitive topics.
Additionally, keep in mind that even with SafeSearch turned off, the search results may still include content that is inappropriate for minors. If you have children who use your computer, consider setting up parental controls to restrict their access to certain websites.
Conclusions:
In conclusion, turning off SafeSearch is a simple process that can be completed in just a few steps. However, it is important to use caution when searching for sensitive topics and consider setting up parental controls if necessary.
