Hi Pam, In Windows 10, Cortana is what you're using if you want to search your own local computer for absolutely anything, from an app to a file. Another name for the search edit box on the Start menu is Cortanaa.

All they're doing is making it the only choice if you search from the Cortana search box. And why not? Of course they're going to promote the use of their own products. If it's too much to open whatever browser you want and whatever search engine you want, which for me is done with one key stroke, well, maybe it's time to bow out of the computer world. Apple has probably been doing the same thing for years.
