cortana drove me nuts . i like being able to search/type in the start menu, that was a good freature to add, but cortana along with web searching felt messy and invasive.
I've heard of people allegedly losing personal files in updates but i never experienced that problem.
at one time i had a laundry list of reasons i disliked windows but over the years I've refined down to "not my cup of tea".
I get rid of Cortana every time it pops up. Last time I installed Windows I somehow enabled OneDrive even though I definitely did not want it. It wound up trying to back up my gigabytes of game save files and mods to the cloud.
