You can uninstall it with winget uninstall cortana, never gave me any issues, works like a charm. Removing edge will break some stuff though, you need some edge render thingie for certain programs like Weather.

I remember, back in the windows 10 days if you uninstall Cortana, Windows search (start menu search) just breaks

But I guess it makes sense now that this works because Microsoft itself is ditching Cortana for Bing AI

Well it's just that Bing AI is what Cortana was supposed to be, but couldn't have been.

Makes sense they'd ditch it and integrate an LLM model instead.
