Windows 10: Cortana Glitching

Hey, so whenever I open up the Cortana task and search bar (which is located right next to the start icon), it gets glitchy. I have already tried the Microsoft Powershell method but it doesn't get rid of the issue. If you have any tricks, please let me know. Thanks.

:)

 

Cortana Notebook

In order to enable the Notebook icon in Cortana, I suggest you to check if you have enabled Cortana.

To enable Cortana, please follow the steps below:

• Go to Cortana.
• Go to Settings.
• Turn on “Cortana can give you suggestions, ideas, reminders, alerts”.

Hope this helps.
