Windows 10: Cortana, Build 1903 and voice integration questions??

I recently learned about the new Build 1903. Sounds good; however, it's not available to my PC. I have a question relating to Cortana; as it relates to this Build. My current laptop has Build 1803 and I'm using Windows 10 Home.


Because of my poor eyesight, I would love to make better use of Cortana's voice recognition. I'm not too interested in the PDA aspects; however, I do like the idea of verbally telling Cortana "Open Document Name in Word" and not bother with the little mic icon. I'd also appreciate knowing if there are improvements in the area of voice dictation. That is, "Cortana Begin typing" and say what I want to be typed.


So far, Windows Speech Recognition is kept separate from Cortana. I'd rather that be integrated with Cortana than the search thing.

Hi,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

The Windows 10 1903 feature update now lets the users to uninstall a few apps using the
Context menu. If you’re on the latest build of Windows 10, it will let you uninstall a few UWP applications using the
Context Menu.





Please find the list of apps that can now be uninstalled using the Context menu below:

• 3D Viewer
• Calculator
• Calendar
• Groove Music
• Mail
• Movies & TV
• Paint 3D
• Snip & Sketch
• Sticky Notes
• Voice Recorder

To know how to uninstall the apps that cannot be uninstalled using the context menu, refer the article
Step-By-Step: Removing Windows 10 Universal Apps via
PowerShell by Anthony Bartolo.

Cortana is an integral part of Windows and she cannot be entirely turned off. However, if you don’t want Cortana functionality available to you on your taskbar, I would suggest you to follow these steps:
Manage Cortana settings.

Let us know how it goes.

Cortana & Office 365 Integration

We are trying to integrate Cortana with our Office 365 subscription, but it never works. Here are the steps we have done:

• Turned on Cortona in the Office 365 Admin portal
• We are using Windows 10 1703 – connected Office 365 service to Cortana

Did the same on windows 10 mobile with no luck, Cortana says its connected to Office 365, but sees no data and we are getting zero errors

We went rough office 365 support first and tried all fo their suggestions, they kicked us over to Windows support which is currently closed.

We are on v1703 with all updates in place, it does not work on Windows 10 desktop or mobile

any ideas? I can give you all steps 365 support had us run through if that will be helpful

Thank you

Doug

Hi Robert,

When you say 'No Cortana voice on PC ' are you referring to that Cortana cant hear you?

If yes I suggest you to refer the link below and follow the steps suggested.
