Don't know if any of these programs will work with Windows 10 with the native Windows 10 search process turned off.

Good News... Went through the process of completely disabling Cortana and the only issue is that the search box located in the taskbar is also disabled and you can hide the search box since it's no longer used, but you can still do a standard search with the windows explorer file-manager for files and folders. :)

Add "Take Ownership" to Explorer Right-Click Menu in Windows

Taking ownership of system files or folders in Windows is not a simple task. Whether you use the GUI or the command line, it takes far too many steps. This method works in Windows Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, and 10, and it maybe works in XP, though you won’t need it there.
