How do I get rid of Cortana in windows 10? - Dryer_Lint - Dec 14, 2019

A windows 10 update came with cortana, which appears as an icon in the lower-left of the screen.

How do I get rid of it, permanently?

you can use a third-party tool such as O&O ShutUp10.

Can I disable it through the registry?

Please, create a new Text Document File and copy and paste this code into the Text Document File and rename and save it to "Disable.reg"

Code
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Search]
"AllowCortana"=dword:00000000
