    Cortana and 2004 - UK


    When I update to Windows 10 20H1/2004 it all goes well, except Cortana reports as "not currently available in the UK". The Cortana Tab in settings in missing. I've checked that I'm am signed in everywhere I am and also tried resetting the Cortana app, but nothing works. I've reverted back to 1909 where Cortana works as expected.


    I don't use Cortana a huge amount these days because of dwindling support from Microsoft. Is this an issue you're aware of and plan to fix or should I give up on her and stick with Alexa instead?!

    :)

    Get Cortana to work in English (UK) for Windows 10

    I upgraded to Windows 10, and Cortana doesn’t seem to be available based on the Start Menu:

    but when I click the link, it takes me to this page:


    Cortana and 2004 - UK a6AEm.png


    which suggests it should be available in the UK, since I've checked

    • my language settings are English (UK),
    • I have the English (UK) language pack installed, and
    • the speech settings are also set to English (UK).

    I think this is everything, right?  It certainly ticks the boxes in the Microsoft help article.

    How can I get Cortana up & running?

  3. Cortana 'unavailable in your area' but I'm in the UK

    Hi,

    We appreciate your interest in Windows 10.

    To make the Cortana work in UK, you should set the default language and speech settings to UK. You are not able to change the speech settings to English UK because you have not downloaded the speech packs for the English UK.
    I suggest you to check the language and speech settings in Cortana by following below steps and check if it helps.


    • Press Windows + I keys on the keyboard to open settings menu.

    • Click on Time and language and select
      region and language.

    • Under Language option, check which language is Set as default.

    • If you find different language, you can change it by clicking on Add a language option.

    • Select your preferred language (English UK) and click on
      Set as default under English UK language.

    • Now, click on English UK and click on
      Options.(Under Languages)

    • Download the language, handwriting and speech packs.

    • Now, click on Speech from the
      Time and language
      settings menu.

    • Check if you are able to select the speech settings to
      English UK.

    • After performing above steps, check if you are able to use Cortana.
    I suggest you to refer to the suggestions provided by the
    mickapw in below thread and check if it helps to resolve the issue.

    Cortana is "unavailable in my country" and am unable to turn on. I am in the UK using English UK.

    Reference: If you are facing any issue with Cortana, then you may refer to the following Microsoft Help article to fix the issue.

    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/cortana-search

    I hope the above information helps. Kindly let us know if you need any further assistance with Windows. We are glad to assist you.
