Aug 27, 2015 at 18:44 comment added JohnDuhr It's EN-GB version
Aug 27, 2015 at 16:27 comment added magicandre1981 which language? En-US?
Aug 27, 2015 at 11:03 comment added JohnDuhr Hi..my version is the 64 bit one. I've converted install.esd (from the Win 10 USB installer) to install.wim so I can browse it with 7Zip, and I can see the Cortana package in the system apps folder, but not sure how/what tools to use to re-install. Thanks.
Aug 27, 2015 at 4:27 comment added magicandre1981 which version/language do you need (32 or 64Bit)?
Aug 26, 2015 at 12:28 comment added JohnDuhr Further up in the post alluded to there is a suggestion by WernerCD which uses a Powershell and: Get-AppxPackage | Select Name, PackageFullName Remove-AppxPackage Microsoft.Windows.Cortana_1.4.8.176_neutral_neutral_cw5n1h2txyewy ...which incidentally does NOT work to remove Cortana, as he would have found out by actually trying it! However there is an 'add package' command which is the reverse of the above to add/remove individual apps like Weather, etc. Surely there must be a similar set of tools to do the same with Cortana? I don't care that it's gone, that's exactly what I wanted.
Aug 26, 2015 at 12:23 comment added DavidPostill Yes it does. Restore from the backup you made.
Aug 26, 2015 at 12:22 comment added JohnDuhr Yes, I did, but that doesn't answer my question!
