    Classic Shell start menu is a free 3rd party start menu - very highly recommended. You can still use the Win 10 start menu too. CS start menu just works as you expect and is highly configurable. It behaves like Win 7 + Win XP start menus.

    The search box can be used for any of internet, file, start menu searches and you can choose which. File searches use Windows indexed search.
    Classic Shell - Start menu and other Windows enhancements

    Here are the search options:

    Please bear in mind that Cortana file search
    a. is limited to what's indexed.
    b. doesn't include any form of executable file.
    c. requires extra clicks to select file search and which kind of file search (Videos, Music etc)
    d. does not support regular expressions (?, * etc).

  2. Just downloaded this and came here to post I found a solution. I had a hyperlink in my post above but it got removed somehow.
    So far software looks great, this is just what I'm looking for. Cortana is gone and I still have a search bar! Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks everyone.

    Cheers,
    Gunner
