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?
Network Map...? Why is this gone?
Seriously Microsoft. Why would you remove the network map feature from Windows? This was a really stupid move. Now people have to resort to 3rd party software when it could have been a basic baked in feature... like it has been in the past.
Changed my default picture folder name somehow
I somehow changed my default picture folder name that I also don't know how and now it shows (/D) only. And I am not able to rename it now. I don't know much about operating computer and learning to use it. So please somebody help me in this issue. My C drive shows 47 GB free out of 97, D Drive 437 GB free out of 450 GB and E Drive 445 GB out of 450 GB. So you see not having much files but stil my laptop runs very slow and takes a lot of time to start and reboot almost 10 min for each one. And runs super slow. Please guide me in these matters. I shall be very thankful for any help provided on here.
Latest update "broke" my Surface Pro 3
After installing the latest update my Surface Pro 3 went haywire. Windows for any/all apps were resizing and or closing themselves spontaneously. The caret/cursor was flying all over the place. Apps that had settings e.g. a metronome app, would reset all on its own. Thankfully, I was able to revert back to the previous build. So, WTF?

Microsoft Rewards
Where did the Warpspeed quizzes (From the daily challenges) go? On my dashboard, I can see some lightspeed and supersonic quizzes, but no Warpspeed quizzes. Have they replaced Warpspeed with This or That quizzes? I used to like the Warpspeed quizzes but now I can't see them anymore. (Also, I am new to this Windows Community thing, so let me know if there's a separate place to ask for questions such as these!)
