    Cortana can't make a reminder


    Hi,


    I spend most of my time on my Windows PC, so I used Cortana many times before for basic tasks like a reminder, unit conversion, world time, etc...


    after the new Cortana's change cannot be considered as an update in the windows 2004 version, I was not able to activate it by saying 'Hi Cortana' like before, besides other issues, so I was disappointed, and I didn't used it till today.


    Today I opened it again hoping it had an update, and indeed there was an update, I was happy after seeing the voice command back to work again, then I tried to reuse it for my reminder, but I was so frustrated after I saw it cannot make any reminder, even when I tried the exact suggested phrase as the below screenshot.

    So, I kindly ask you to make your updates more useful, valuable, and bugs free, and make more tests before shipping it, as this is what the term "Update" means.


    Best.

    :)

    Make Cortana Reminders Persist

    Hi. I'd like the Cortana reminders to persist forever until I completely dismiss or delete them. This is very similar to how the reminders work in Outlook 2016. I can contunually "snooze" a reminder, and it will be there days or weeks or until I officially
    "Dismiss" the reminder. Cortana does not seem to do this. I can snooze cortana a few times but then eventually the reminders stop popping up, even though the item still exists in the reminder listing. What's going on? Is there a setting that can change
    this or is it a bug?

    Thanks,

    Anthony
