Windows 10: How do I revert the Start Menu search function to an older version and lock it there?

To be frank, I absolutely abhor the inclusion of an internet search in the start menu. It's intrusive, it's malicious when you consider how tech illiterate the average customer is, and it's nearly impossible to turn off by design.But I was, begrudgingly, able to live with it, and sort of make use of the search function.That ended with the latest update, where Microsoft heard it was being useful, took it outback and wailed on it for a few hours with a bat.To clarify that I am not exaggerating, one of the primary uses I had for the Search function, was to use keyboard commands "Windows Key >

Windows 10 Start Menu, search and Cortana still not functioning correctly

I had some issues with Start Menu not functioning. this was solved in a post by a Microsoft Engineer Giridhar J. However, although the Start menu is now functioning along with the notifications. there are some glitches still.

I cannot pin folders to the start menu. Search and Cortana still does not work properly. Search is glitchy at best having to click on the start button then immediately click in the search box for it to work. Cortana does not work and is not listed as a app
any more.

Any suggestions?

here is a screen shot of the start options
