Cortana
Prior to 2004, I used a Windows-based computer. I was unhappy with Windows because of constant "blue screens of death", hackers planting viruses, etc...When I became a truck driver in 2004, I mainly used a mobile phone and started using Google products. I like their products and they all work seamlessly with each other. Now, I am a full-time Care-Provider for my mother and just purchased a new computer with Windows 10 Pro installed. I decided to give Microsoft apps a try once again because I do like their products. On my PC there are no problems, but on my Android phone, I just can't seem to get Cortana to work hands-free, and with certain apps. I do understand that there is a war between Microsoft, Apple, Google and any other companies that are out there, but, the customer (that would be you and I) should be able to use whatever Assistant we choose to work with any apps that we like and use. Case in point: the Google Assistant comes on automatically when I say "OK Google" (hands-free), and I can set a timer, ask about the weather, play my favorite music in the Google Play app, etc....no problem....Today I downloaded Cortana to work with all my apps and I cannot even get it to turn on without tapping the microphone button. I made it my default app, turned on all the permissions, etc...and I am discouraged with Microsoft again. I haven't given up yet, but I had to switch back to the Google Assistant just so I can do the things I need to do hands-free, which comes with a cost of not being able to use some of the Microsoft apps unless done manually. I like Microsoft's To-Do List, but Google Assistant will only open Google's Task app. It just defeats the whole purpose of downloading all of Microsoft's apps if I can't use everything seamlessly. I use Amazon Music now, and neither Assistant will open it. I would really like to use whatever Assistant I choose with the default apps that I select. Now, am I doing something wrong or does this sound about right?

Shoutout for Microsoft Teams 🤩
We are more than aware of the ongoing situations with CoVid19. ☹ Many people have been confined to their homes or, self isolating for their health protection. For those people who are confined (like a contributor to this platform) as an example, they are able to carry out their job responsibilities from home because many of us live in a connected world. This could not have been possible without the advancement of computer technologies to the level as they are today. Just imagine this kind of situation 20 years ago?! Having just been contacted by an individual who is working under these conditions, they expressed the opinion and I quote 'thank goodness I am able to do this'. My colleague is using Windows 10. So Microsoft please accept this person's thanks. Guys you are cosmic 😃 and so are the people using this platform, offering their help and advice to other contributors - co cool .
Task Bar Compromised
After the last update, my taskbar is "cut in half" in other words, the top of the icons are visible, and I have to guess --mostly correct--what I am trying to click on. I have called Microsoft and the technician talked to me, I thought he would help, but the usual "click" and he was gone. I have tried all other remedies suggested, but nothing addresses this particular problem. I have tried moving the task bar to the side, rather than the bottom, but it still presents with only half. Any ideas what else I could try? Every update something else goes hinky, I think this is one of my lesser evils in a dozen of disasters, it is just annoying.

Need to reinstall Microsoft store
I tried many things but still not able to reinstall Store as it was not working I tried some youtube videos but still not able to reinstall. Some example - I tried 1. Click Start, type Powershell. In the search results, right-click “PowerShell” and click Run as administrator. 2. In the PowerShell window, type the command, shown below and hit ENTER. ➤ COMMAND: Get-AppxPackage *windowsstore* | Remove-AppxPackage and press ENTER. In order to restore or reinstall Microsoft Store, start PowerShell as Administrator. Click Start, type PowerShell. In the search results, right-click the PowerShell and click Run as administrator. In the PowerShell window, type the command given below and press ENTER. This should install/reinstall the Microsoft Store app. After the process ends, reboot your PC to complete this action. ➤ COMMAND: Get-AppXPackage *WindowsStore* -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"} Powershell Get-AppxPackage not working? The issue might occur because the AppX Deployment Service was disabled. Here's how to enable it: 1. Press WIN + R, type in 'regedit' and and press Enter 2. Navigate the following path: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\AppXSvc 3. On the right hand double-click on Start 4. Set it to 2 and press OK 5. Now, restart your computer. It should work now, give it a try!

Having Bluetooth issues :(! Anyone else?
After the last windows update two of my Bluetooth headsets will no longer connect to my computer. We are also having issues on a brand new laptop that we bought and a new Bluetooth mouse not connecting as well. On my laptop I went through all of the fixes and I even preformed a clean install on my laptop and no affect. I reached out to Microsoft on Feedback hub and this is the message I received. "TL:DR; Thanks for reporting this problem to us; we're working on it. Try the troubleshooter (if you haven't already) http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkId=785321 This feedback (audio doesn't work) is the top issue we are tracking, and we're focusing a lot of effort on trying to fix it. One of the challenges with audio on Windows is it is a complex system with a lot of moving parts; there are a lot of things that can break. Depending on what breaks, different things might happen. You might get an error message; there might be a crash; things might get stuck; or you might even be in a situation where everything LOOKS like it's working, but yet no audio comes out. There's a multitude of different things we're looking at, finding problems with, coming up with fixes for, coming with workarounds for, doing preventive maintenance on, etc. – but this type of issue often doesn't have a simple fix. While we continue to work on this, we'll be keeping an eye on this feedback and your comments, to see if we're doing a good job. In the meantime, here are some of the specific things we're working on:" Plus some other B.S. on how to update drivers and turning on bluetooth which I had already done multiple times. Don't launch things until you know it works. My next computer will be a Mac.
