I absolutely can confirm that Cortana is using a ton of CPU. I have an i7 8700 k and it's using about 20%. Not the 30 to 40% CPU usage but still unacceptable. Also, this is causing Windows search in the start menu to not work as well. I am getting tired of all the broken updates that Microsoft keeps releasing and I'm wondering if it's worth it to even switched to Linux at this point because it is a beyond broken operating system.<br>No one cares about Cortana.<br>No one cares about Bing.<br>No one cares about Microsoft's garbage that they try to shut down your throat.,(reply>), Microsoft Team is malware as well. It keeps reinstalling until you find out that you have to uninstall the Teams system wide installer... Go figure.<br>Linux is not an option because it only runs heavily outdated hardware like Hasswell at max, and even modern CPUs and GPUs are too slow...
