Hello All,

I am having an issue. The spotlight search is not working for web (bing / wikipedia).

I am living in China but using a VPN and try the following :

Disable location service for spotlight
Set my system to USA / English language.
Reset the index file of Spotlight through terminal command.
Set bing as default search engine in Safari (i am using chrome as default).
Restart computer etc...

It still doesnt work. At some point wikipedia search was working but it stopped working.

I dont know how to fix that since i tried everything i could read online about the issue.

Thx for your help
