[WIN10] How to totally disable or remove SearchApp.exe in Win 10? How do you do that? i don't know why, but searchapp.exe has always shown as being "suspended" on my windows 10 computer. when i install windows 10, since i know that cortana listens for commands, and i don't want cortana to be listening to everything i say, i always select to not have cortana's assistance as one of the options when installing windows 10. in windows 10's task manager's "startup" tab, you can disable cortana, there. i also use a reg-file to disable "bing-search," supposedly. i was thinking that i got it from "tenforums.com" but i can't find it there, now..
