    No, Winkey + C will still open Cortana. But you  have to type or select the microphone icon after opening the app in order to communicate with her.

    For Info:

    After a few (lot of) tries on Hyper-V machine (copy of my desktop windows 10 1909 x64 pro).

    I use the iso file from MediaCreationTool2004 for eatch of my tries.

    Finally I made the installation working doing:

    1. Clean the root disk (c) "c: property\clean\clean system Files"
    2. Clean all restauration point et disable system protection
    3. Clean all Microsoft event logs (just to make it easier to read)
    4. Make sure to have 30 Gbytes of free disk place
    5. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE AT LEAST 8 GBytes of memory available

    And finally the installation occurs. 

    Need a few hours, it's very very slow. Amazing how Microsoft is regressing! I think developpers should have a Intel-I5 with 8 Gbytes maximum, so they'll understand about speed, but they certainly have a Intel-I9 or a vitual machine very very fast!)

    At the end of installation, last (?) reboot and..., a black screen for quite a while.

    A while, that is quite a long time since the corona containment but now, thanks to microsoft, I have now much more plenty of time to do home work, clean the house, the car, .....

    After this "a while", about 2 hours,  I watch at the monitor, may be I don't have to watch TV to have something else than a black screen!?

    No luck!

    "So I decide to force reboot".

    And,... Black screen.

    BUT after about 10 min something appears and I can connect through RDP to the virtual machine !!!!

    Now at least I have the welcome screen.

    Obviously, there are a lot of programmers to welcome because it tooks about 15 min!

    And now it's ok..., or not!

    Winver tells me I am still at version 1909!!!!

    ****!

    I decide to restart the whole thing during the night, may be it happends some secrets I am not allowed to see!

    Indeed, It worked, the version is now windows 10 2004 ! ("force a reboot" was obviously not a good idea)

    So,résumé:

    I use the iso file from MediaCreationTool2004

    1. Clean the root disk (c) "c: property\clean\clean system Files"
    2. Clean all restauration point et disable system protection
    3. Clean all Microsoft event logs (just to make it easier to read later)
    4. Make sure to have at least 30 Gbytes of free disk place
    5. MAKE SURE YOU HAVE AT LEAST 8 GBytes of memory available (I tried on a windows 10 pro), I have tried with 6 Gbytes and I just received "update failed" nothing more nothing less.
    6. Wait, wait ,...... 

    Cortana not working (fr-fr).

    Exactly the same here John, I had NO problems at all when using the MCT to upgrade my Alienware 17.3 R-4 Laptop and afterwards,  it runs Great with the New 2004 update.

    Enjoy!...
