Anyone know a way to make it stop????

I ma getting pissed off more everyday since Microsoft updated with the anniversary windows 10 and gave us that fucking Cortana and the computer freezes up on both IE and Chrome so you have to shut the computer off 10 times a day ...I think they want you to use their crappy Bing search engine.....

They say they are aware of the problem with no fix....

The thing that really bugs me now.the computer "thinks" for me i think it is that fucking Cortana...and decides what I want to type and now when I reread half of the stuff I write here and everywhere else...they finish my words so they don't make sense in a sentence....or turn and In into Indiana...fuck....

...anyone know how to turn this off....I assume it is a program. Is it Cortana?

Kara...or anyone...do you know if Cortana is the one responsible for "helping me type"?

I had a fit when they wanted me to give them permission to record my voice so they understoond the inflections of speech so I wonder if anyone knows if deleting her will also delete the annoying typing helper and the computer freezes? I want to make sure the=at blaming Cortana is not totally irrational first..she just came along with alot of other annoying updates...

It's probably either "speech recognition" or one of the Ease of Access features.

This is probably what you're looking for:

Thanks guys....I have had my attention diverted in too many places the past couple of days and will for the next couple of weeks but when my slate and brain are both clear..I will attempt all of the fixes...slowly....I am tech challenged so it needs my full attention.

Thanks again!

Reformat to Windows 7, then go here and try this app out: https://www.grc.com/never10.htm

It will shut down ALL attempts at automatically upgrading to Windows 10...OR you can follow this tutorial on dodging Windows 10 (lemon) : http://www.howtogeek.com/228551/how...-8-from-downloading-windows-10-automatically/
