    Problems with Cortana/Searchbox for all users Windows 10 v1803

    Still having no luck figuring out how to disable cortana, but leave searchbox on the taskbar enabled. Don't know what combination of things to disable/enable to make this happen I have been trying for awhile now. I have it now that cortana is disabled, but when creating a new user and clicking on start, the searchbox changes to the cortana symbol..weird.

    How do I connect my H+O tablet to my Desktop Computer

    I bought an H+O tablet however although it is physically connected to my desktop computer by a cable with a USB on one end and a Mini USB on the other when I open the Icon on the list of folders on the left of the page it only shows 'This folder is empty'
    to all the folders on it. I know that there are documents in many of these folders. How can I get the Desktop to accept the Tablet andthe documents and files in it.

    H-o-w Do I make my "Cortana" searchbox work on my desktop?

    Problems with Cortana/Searchbox for all users Windows 10 v1803

    Hi,
    I'm Creating a new Windows 10 Pro v1803 Image. I need to be able to disable Cortana and web searching in the searchbox on the taskbar for all newly created users. My problem is when I have Cortana disabled, the searchbox reverts to the magnifying glass icon. I need it to show the searchbox and I need to remove web results from appearing when searching for things. I don't want to have to manually change the taskbar settings everytime I have a new user logging in. I have tried both local group policy and regedit. I have it working on HKCU on the current admin user account, but for some reason it doesn't apply to all users no matter what I try. Is this doable at the moment?
    I think I have tried all the guides on this website, I also have been looking for days. Any Help would be appreciated, thanks!
