Thanks guys!

Think I'm sorted:

Do I need to worry about anything else? All of the Advanced options are back where I need them.

Thanks! I've logged off now but will try in the morning.

Will it be possible to recreate do you think?

Hi guys,

I recently switched from MBR to GPT (NMVe upgrade) and my disk looks like this:

All is good, my system boots etc., but I just tried to go into my advanced System Repair...

Yep, you're right; backup image in the end. Life's too short. All is well now but I'll never know the cause...

Thanks for your support!

Enable or Disable Cortana in Windows 10

Option 2. :D

Will try the Powershell code.

This looks identical?

Sorry, will try and answer each question ;)

Nope, never even considered removing Cortana - I use it all the time actually. It was working until a couple of days ago I'd say.

Created new "Test"...

Explorer Search, Settings search - all fine. Just Cortana :sarc:

I just tried the registry fix, not working either... would downloading 1909 and installing again work? - if even possible?

Nope, nothing...

Will try suggestions in links, thanks people.

Hi there!

Thanks for the reply. I've been on 1909 since late November I think, no problems. I've been updating on this machine since Windows 7.

How do I check the "Hey Cortana" setting?...

Hi guys,

Cortana has disappeared and SearchUI.exe is suspended...

I use Cortana a lot - any way or restoring? I've no idea what has caused this although 'Search' wasn't...
