    Cortana just stops working


    I can't believe I am the only person with this problem. Cortana works , more or less, for a day or so and then just suddenly I click on "ask me anything" and nothing happens. Cortana is just plain non-responsive. If I re-boot my machine it starts working again until the next time it dies.

    I admit I have an SSD boot drive so it doesn't take too long to re-boot but it is an annoying and recurring problem.

    :)

    Hey Cortana

    Hey Cortana stopped working suddenly? Did it happen after an OS update or just randomly?

    2nd Nuron just stops working?

    try removing SIM card and memory card. Then plug in the charger.

    Does the Neuron wake up with the charger connected and start charging? It might take a few minutes if your battery was completely dead.

    If yes the if you press and hold the power key can you get it to then power up?

    If no then your Neuron is most likely totally dead

    If it charges, but doesn't power up then it may be some corruption in the SW.
