Problem with File History in Windows 10

Have you followed my suggestions to turn off file hystory, stop using the drive and delete the file history folder from your external drive? I think this is needed to reset the file history dataset.

You should not remove folders from the included list, but add them to the excluded list. I know this does not make sense, since folders will appear both in included and excluded list, but this worked for me... Hope this works for you too.

Cortana Error in Reliability Monitor

Hi,

I appreciate you for trying some steps in order to get the issue fixed.

If you don't find any error with Cortana, and the issue is only with reliability monitor projecting an error with Cortana. I would then request you to perform DISM and check if the issue is removed.

• 
  Press Windows key, and type CMD in search. Right click on CMD and click on Run as administrator.
  
  • 
    In command prompt, type the following commands and press Enter after each command:
    
  • 
    DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth
    
• 
  DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth
  
• 
  Close the command prompt and restart the PC and check if it works.
  
  
  

Please revert if you face any issues with reliability monitor.
