Windows 10: Hide Cortana - how it works
If Cortana is annoying in Windows 10, you can completely hide the wizards. Alternatively, only the search bar can be hidden so that Cortana takes up less space. We will show you the exact procedure for both options.
Hide Cortana on Windows 10
- First, right-click on an empty area of the taskbar.
- Under "Cortana" you will now find the "Hide" option. Thus Cortana disappears completely.
- However, if you choose the "Show Cortana Icon" option, the search bar changes to an inconspicuous icon.
In the next practical tip, we will show you how to start Windows 10 without a login.
