ShowTopResult specifies whether the TopResult feature is used with search requests in Windows® Internet Explorer®.
This setting works with the TopResultURL setting.

With the TopResult feature enabled, when the search provider is confident that the end user is searching for a specific website, the search provider can choose to skip the results page and instead return the new site.
