I seem to remember that even when Cortana is shut off, it was found to be listening and sending telemetry back to Microsoft. Based on their past behaviour, I'd guess that even is it is "removed", those elements will remain.
- kabdib 7y agoI don't recall seeing a way to remove Cortana, just disable it. (Yup, fills me with confidence).
