I just installed Windows 10 1803.

I like Cortana for finding things on my computer.
But I never want Cortana to run a Bing web search.

On every Windows 10 system I touch, I install Spybot Anti-Beacon
and disable Cortana's web search with that. Then instead of full-blown
Cortana you get a local search. (There are more complete Windows 10
privacy utilities but I've found Spybot works OK for turning off
the most obnoxious stuff without causing problems.)

I also install Classic Shell (classicshell.net) since I really don't
like the new start menu, but that's obviously a matter of personal
preference.
