Don't like to glue down anything as it's too hard to get it up later. Baseboard trim will have to be removed and replaced as well as doors need to be cut down. I did find a guy who uses a 'dust-less' tile removal method. Mike Antonetti w/ First Floors out of Inverness, FL. (You can find his number on the internet or phone directory. Charges $3.50 sq ft for removal. Not sure what he charges to re-install. I'll probably use him to tear out our entry so I can extend the cork through that area as well. LVT is another option but your tile will still need to be leveled w/ an embossing leveler. Good luck.

Which cork product did you use? And does it resist fading?
