I don't like Cortana either, just like I don't like Bixby on my Galaxy S8 and disabled her.
I much prefer Google, and using OK Google to wake it up. In fact, later there will be a Google update of some sort, coming soon, that will allow one to say Hey Google, and some already have this on their phones.

Can anyone tell me how to do this? I know Cortana is a search engine within Windows 10, but I want to simply search from the start menu tout it taking over. This morning, I was trying to do a search for fold options and Cortana kept taking me to the wrong thing. If you more advanced JAWS and Windows 10 users think it not prudent to disable Cortana, what's the best way to reach folder options? I'm having problems with the download manager Vision Australia's library uses and the representative believes that various files are hidden. He's advised me to go to folder options and uncheck the "hide files" option. Would appreciate any hints at this point since, after a morning of trying to work through the Windows keyboard commands and being interrupted by phone calls and visits from my parents and then the grocery delivery, I'm way behind and am expecting a call from the IT guy in about half an hour. Thanks. Cheers!
