Windows 10: No "Hey Cortana" option in Settings

I have Windows 10. When I select the Settings option there is not an option to turn on Hey Cortana. The first option is "Cortana can give you suggestions..." and the second is "Device search history". Can anyone please tell me where to find the option to turn on "Hey Cortana" as it should be under Settings according tot he sites I have read. Thank you

:)

 

Dolby keeps turning off by itself in Windows 10

It's the "Hey Cortana" function that's causing the problem... click on cortana, then notebook then settings and turn off the hey cortana option... Enjoy!!!

 

"Hey Cortana"

Yes, the application is not available thru' the link .. but did you check under settings whether its already there or not ? The availability depends on your phone model and region ..

 

Welcome to the forum,

Is Cortana turned on as mentioned in the blue note box here,

Hey Cortana - Turn On or Off in Windows 10 - Windows 10 Forums

 

I think that must have been the answer.
In playing around further, after posting my question, during one aspect of checking settings I had turned on the 'location'.
The when I looked at the Settings in following your suggestions, the "Hey Cortana' was present.
So, thanks derekimo, my problem is resolved.

 

i just dont get it no matter where i look i cant find a real answer i have location on i have cortana allowed to use location I STILL HAVE NO OPTION TO ENABLE CORTANA nor does cortana work AT ALL pls some one help

 

You do not have search turned off do you?

 

I do not understand why this thread has been marked solved?

 

Could be.... *Wink

 

i finally got it to work by going into the regedit and giving the bing search and hey cortana options 1 instead of 0 / and the LOCATION setting have nothing to do with the issue when they are on the options are NOT there until after going thru regedit

 

no i had everything that i had available on / all options were missing untill i edited the registry
