Dateranoth Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 So, the latest update to Windows 10 "Anniversary Update" or some such forces Cortana to stay on and disables the classic search. You can turn off all the predictive learning, etc, but if you search the web through Cortana you are still forced to a Bing search via Edge. Some awsome person made an easy work around. Simply follow the install instructions and the search links will open in your default browser using your selected search engine. https://github.com/charlesmilette/SearchWithMyBrowser This site has a bit clearer instructions than the GitHub: http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/force-cortana-use-chrome-google-windows-10/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeeKnuckle Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 I literally just force uninstalled Cortana and installed Classic Shell. My CPU usage has gone way down since I did both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dateranoth Posted August 8, 2016 Author Share Posted August 8, 2016 Probably he stupid indexing she does. I don't mind it now that Inhave everything turned off and it's using Firefox and Google. Basically just a search that also searches the Internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeeKnuckle Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 She's not lonely. She and her partner program are always busy in the background, indexing searches and eating up all of your CPU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
