    I am not sure about intent, but Rewards searching is very hit and miss, especially on my PC. I have cleared cache and reset the rewards button many times. Sometimes this works for a while. Also the Awards counts on my PC are always different than what they say on my Android phone. I log in with the same account on both. I know that now searches are limited to 3 in a row with 15 minutes or so. This limit seems to be applied separately to PC or Android. I am not convinced the folks at MS could tell us how this works these days.

    Actually, I reset the browser and now it works! go to browser setting, then reset setting, then click on "Reset setting to their default value". and it works after that.

    One thing I just noticed is that Bing Page has categories, starting with Search, then Chat, Images, Videos, Maps, News ... I often choose News and that choice seems not to earn points. Changing my choice to Search started earning points for every search. Weird.

    That worked for me too, for a while. I recently discovered that my Bing Searches were only looking at News and not general Searches, which was the change I needed to earn for every searchl
