Any help to eliminate Start Menu "Store suggested apps" in 25H2?

DisableSearchBoxSuggestions is the one suggested by some users. Other folks think it might be related to the new Start Menu that's being gradually rolled out, or it's based on your market region (ie. inside or outside of the EEA).
A few ElevenForum users confirm that running WinToys to opt out of the Digital Markets Act works too.

What WinToys actually does is modify IntegratedServicesRegionPolicySet.json, to change "Show modified UX layout, such as unweighted options, for Privacy-related settings". Turkey is of course, not an EEA member.

This setting isn't present in the RTM version of the JSON file, so you'll need to update your base image before you can edit it.

Code:
    {
      "$comment": "Show modified UX layout, such as unweighted options, for Privacy-related settings",
      "guid": "{dbfadcb8-0302-4de0-87be-4dfbb71950f9}",
      "defaultState": "disabled",
      "conditions": {
        "region": {
          "enabled": ["AT", "BE", "BG", "BR", "CA", "CH", "CY", "CZ", "DE", "DK", "EE", "ES", "FI", "FR", "GB", "GF", "GP", "GR", "HR", "HU", "IE", "IS", "IT", "KR", "LI", "LT", "LU", "LV", "MT", "MQ", "NL", "NO", "PL", "PT", "RE", "RO", "SE", "SI", "SK", "VN", "YT"]
        }
      }
    },

Either change the defaultState to "enabled", or insert your country code in the list.
