    You can uninstall it with winget uninstall cortana, never gave me any issues, works like a charm. Removing edge will break some stuff though, you need some edge render thingie for certain programs like Weather.

      No one is going to use weather on a PC, that’s what a phone is for

          How is Endeavor OS? I’m using kubuntu now and wanted to switch to something with a lean base. I recall there were some issues with the founder leaving the project.

            didn’t hear anything about that, maybe you mean AntergOs? Endeavor Os is kinda the follow-up from AntergOs when the founder there stopped working on it.

            but endeavor is it’s own thing very close to pure arch just has a nice gui installer.

            I can only recommend trying it, AUR is awesome.

              Oh I think it might be elementaryOS. I remember never getting antergOS to install, good old times. That said, I do have experience with bare arch install and AUR is indeed awesome.

              I no longer use arch btw. I will try endeavor this weekend, thanks!

        It’s enabled on my work terminal. It’s actually kinda useful to be able to check if I’m dismissing class into a snowstorm or something when we’re in a room without windows.

        When you live in a place like Boston, you really need that app

      I remember, back in the windows 10 days if you uninstall Cortana, Windows search (start menu search) just breaks

      But I guess it makes sense now that this works because Microsoft itself is ditching Cortana for Bing AI

      You are the real mvp here. Just ran it in cmdprompt and it worked like a charm. Love you, random person.
