  2. Cortana and settings options disappeared

    .

    Does a new user account fix the problem? We can then identify if it's just the account or the whole computer feature of Cortana.

  3. Cortana and settings options disappeared


    Have you been able to use Cortana before and have you experienced any problems with it then?
    What about trying a system restore?

    Also this could be of some use to you: Cortana Search Box Windows 10
    I would particually suggest step 3 and see if the problem still remains with a new user account.

    Cortana Taskbar Search Not Working


    Cortana taskbar search shows up but when you click on it, you cannot enter text. Also even though you can see the Cortana control panel listing when searching in Settings when you click on it it does not open. I checked and the Cortana files are in the System Apps folder. The Cortana process does not show up in Task Manager processes. It looks like some built in Win 10 Microsoft apps are disabledoing in Apps and Settings. See attached pics. Any tips would help fix this Cortana taskbar search issue will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
