Microsoft is expected to expand its digital assistant to more countries in future releases of the operating system. Since Windows 10 build 10041, Cortana is available in China, UK, France, Germany, Italy, and Spain. For example, "Hey Cortana: What's the weather in New York City". You won't notice any change, but now you can use your computer as you would normally do, and when you need something, simply start saying "Hey Cortana," followed by the task. Quick Tip: If you ever like to disable Cortana, you go back to Settings and slide the switch to the "Off" position for the first option. Scroll down until you see the option "Let Cortana respond when you say "Hey Cortana," then simply slide the switch to the "On" position. However, you can easily enable "Hey Cortana" by clicking the menu button in the top-left corner to bring Cortana's settings. This failure is because, by default, the feature is disabled for privacy concerns. Now, if you are trying use the "Hey Cortana" feature to use the assistant hands-free, you will notice that won't work. Just enter a name, and now you should be all set. Also, you'll be prompted to enter the name you want Cortana call you. If during the installation, you didn't enable Cortana, click on the taskbar's search box, to bring up the option to enable the personal assistant and click Allow. Microsoft's digital assistant, Cortana, was first introduced in Windows Phone 8.1, and now the company is bringing the assistant to the Windows 10 desktop.
