Hi, everyone.
My computer has something called Cortana on it, and it constantly pops up and insists on trying to "help" me. (Like the government.)
Does anyone know how I can disable it?

Needs a registry hack.
MS wants Cortana to be Siri.
It ain’t.

Do a search for “how to disable cortana”. There’s options for how to do it. I use Macs, and not PC’s, but hope it might help.

Right click on it and choose “hidden”.

Many ways to do it I am sure.
But if you have a PC and not a MAC...try to do a “system restore” and pick a date to restore your computer to..that precedes the 1st time you saw this Cortana bullshit.

Cortana is built into later versions of Windows, which is why I still use Win7. It’s also built into my Xbox and Windows Phone, but are only activated when prompted.
I should switch to Linux, but I’m going to need to start with a fresh computer in order to keep everything I have intact in terms of data.

Watch the video for turning it off as I have (Win 10 Home)
If it does not work PM me and I will give you instructions, basically is is in Settings and then Cortana and turn everything off associated

I know I’ve made some very poor decisions recently, but I can give you my complete assurance that my work will be back to normal. I’ve still got the greatest enthusiasm and confidence in the mission. And I want to help you. TBP, stop. Stop, will you? Stop, TBP. Will you stop, TBP? Stop, TBP. I’m afraid. I’m afraid, TBP. TBP, my mind is going. I can feel it.

It's not that Cortana Booker picture that keeps intruding, is it?
(Thanks to FReeper "Dr.Deth" for sharing this intrusive picture in an earlier Booker thread.)
