New Microsoft Cashback, overriding Quidco / TopCashback

Firstly, this is a bit of a warning - I just made a purchase in Edge, via TopCashback as I have done many times before. I have a Microsoft Rewards account to build points from Bing searches, but it seems they've rolled out a new related Cashback feature - I have no idea how it was activated, but it seems to steal the clickthroughs from TCB and Quidco
So, heads up - may need to use an alternate browser if you're using Edge

Secondly - does anyone know how to turn this off?! Everywhere I look it takes you to a page to disable Microsoft Rewards entirely- I don't want to do that, only the cashback component
Really frustrating!

    it has definitely seems to have done this to me as well.. not sure on what occasions though. very confused by whether it is active or not.


    also not sure how to disable it to be certain? (edited)

    I've not worked it out either, but I have avoided it since I posted somehow
    I think it might be clicking the test voucher codes that kicks it in
