Does anyone know how to remove Cortana to not have it return?




Supposedly this will do it...as well as stop the telemetry, and a few other things.

Last I recall disabling the cortana process breaks a majority of the operating system.

If you are that worried about it then just don't connect to the internet.

Every platform fetches information. Android, IOS, Windows, Hell Linux does depending on the applications installed.

If you are that paranoid about it just don't use the product... or you know deal with it. It's not like you have anything that they would want to see anyways.


:lol: What it said.

OH NOES! THEY KNOW WHAT HARDWARE I USE AND WHICH WEBSITES I FREQUENT! OH NOES! THEY MIGHT USE IT TO MAKE A BETTER OPERATING SYSTEM! AHHHHHHHH!!

Just tried it on Windows 7, which it will work on as well.
I have spent the last few months, tracking down all the MS telemetry BS in Windows 7 and stopping it...

This tool found...MANY, that I had missed.


And after all that wasted energy and time, what have you found?
