@MIMMO61 @MSMG Have tested with final 2004 (19041.264) and search does not work if I remove Cortana with ToolKit. However I can remove Cortana with CCleaner and search does continue to work. So I recommend using CCleaner to remove Cortana until ToolKitHelper and/or ToolKit are updated to remove Cortana.
I am using v1909,i read somewhere that search would work at least on file explorer but in my case didnt happen and also most important the Control Panel crashed. Anyway glad to know it is fixed in v2004, i ll try it in the near future. For now i am happy with 1909 since i resolved the issues. Sorry for the late reply. I used a RemovePkgsList. So i guess removing the app completely is causing the problems. Disabling it, as i already did after checking, from Customize-Tweaks menu doesn't seem to affect it and should work fine afterwards. Good luck.
In previous versions of Toolkit, the Cortana App was disabled. I never removed it because it was in the system apps, however I don't think it is not advisable to remove it. With disabling, the icon in the start menu should also disappear.
This means that in v1909 If i remove cortana will break control panel ? , I use classic shell to seach ?

Msmg tell please when this bug will fixed, some people in the forum have the same problem, looks like the VCRuntime package don't work fine
Was having issues with my home network from past few days and found out that someone tried to hack into home network by creating a fake Wireless SSID. But it's been fixed and I'm online now.
I have kept the component list to minimal for easy maintenance and troubleshooting, and to achieve a decent classic Windows Desktop experience. When time permits will expand the list with necessary components.
Use Start.cmd to run the Toolkit and don't integrate the VC pack since it contains a bug in creation.
abbodi1406 hasn't uploaded the new VC Pack yet, only the AIO Executable is has been updated. Last time used the AIO Executable to create a pack for Toolkit but it didn't came well, so waiting for the abbodi1406's new pack to be uploaded.
Use Start.cmd to run the Toolkit and don't integrate the VC pack since it contains a bug in creation.
Due to the code protection I have added to the ToolKitHelper, it takes more time to load the program into the memory and then execute. Will try to add more options to ToolKitHelper to accept more parameters.
It's due to Microsoft change in Update package format, the removed components do return when the system is updated either using Windows Update or through manual updates installation/integration.
