First, a correction: Microsoft does not currently document the Bing Homepage Quiz as a fixed 10-question quiz. The live experience is a daily, image-linked quiz whose content and question count can change. The 10 questions below are original questions inspired by the kind of subjects that appear in Bing’s homepage image stories—not a transcript of today’s official quiz.

0–3 Use the answer notes as a quick learning session rather than treating the score as a verdict.

How to open Microsoft’s actual Bing Homepage Quiz

The official quiz is connected to Bing’s daily homepage image. Microsoft’s current support instructions do not describe a permanent 10-question format or a universal archive of old quiz questions.

  1. Open Bing.com.
  2. On the homepage, move the mouse below the search box. This reveals the daily quiz when it is available.
  3. You can also click the headline or credit information attached to the daily image.

The live interface inspected for the U.S. homepage displays one multiple-choice question at a time with three answer choices. That layout, and the number of questions, should not be assumed to be permanent across every day, account, device, or region.

Why the quiz may not appear

  • The homepage image is disabled: Open Bing’s homepage customization controls and check that Show homepage image is enabled. Microsoft also lists controls for Show menu bar and Show news and interests.
  • The feature is unavailable in your region: Microsoft notes that some homepage features are not available in every country or region.
  • You are using a touch device: Microsoft’s documented discovery method uses a mouse. On a phone or tablet, try tapping the image headline or credit information instead.
  • The interface has changed: Bing’s homepage is updated regularly. If the image has no quiz link, there may simply be no quiz exposed for that day.

Is the Homepage Quiz part of Microsoft Rewards?

It is safer not to assume that every completed Homepage Quiz earns points. Microsoft says Rewards opportunities, including quizzes and trivia, are updated daily and advises users to sign in with a Microsoft account to earn points. The Rewards Daily Set and other Rewards quizzes are separate experiences from the quiz reached through the daily Bing image.

For the most reliable points information, sign in and check the current offers on the Microsoft Rewards page. The available activities can vary by market and by account.

What makes these questions useful practice?

A homepage quiz rewards quick recognition, but the explanations matter more than the score. Image-based prompts often give you a visual clue—a landmark, animal, space event, artwork, or landscape—and ask you to connect it with a fact. Covering several subjects prevents the practice set from becoming a test of one narrow specialty.

For a better challenge, hide the answer sections, allow yourself 30 seconds per question, and write down your choices before checking them. Then revisit any explanation you missed. That turns a short quiz into a compact memory exercise without pretending that an unofficial practice list is Microsoft’s current daily content.

FAQ

Does the official Bing Homepage Quiz always have 10 questions?

No. Microsoft’s current support documentation calls it the daily quiz but does not specify a fixed total of 10 questions. The live homepage presents quiz content tied to the daily image, and the format may change.

How do I find the Bing Homepage Quiz?

Open Bing.com and move the mouse below the search box. You can also click the daily image’s headline or credit information. The feature may not be available in every region.

Does Bing’s Homepage Quiz have a timer?

Microsoft’s current support documentation does not specify a universal timer. Timer rules found on independent quiz websites should not be treated as rules for Microsoft’s official homepage feature.

Free tools Windows power users keep installed

Is the Bing Homepage Quiz the same as the Microsoft Rewards Daily Set?

No. The Homepage Quiz is reached through the daily Bing image. Microsoft Rewards offers separate quizzes, trivia, and daily activities, which can vary by region and account.

Can I earn Microsoft Rewards points from the Homepage Quiz?

Do not assume that every Homepage Quiz awards points. Microsoft says Rewards opportunities are updated daily and recommends signing in with a Microsoft account to earn points. Check the current Rewards page for the activity and points shown for your account.

The Bottom Line

Use the 10 questions above as original Bing-style practice, not as a claim about today’s official quiz. To check Microsoft’s current version, open Bing.com, reveal the quiz beneath the search box, or select the daily image’s headline or credit. The question count, availability, and Rewards treatment can change.
