  3. Cortana still not working in Canada??

    Hi Likhitha V,

    Step 1: Set the language by following the steps below:



    • Press Windows icon key on the keyboard, type Settings and select the top most search result.
    • Select Time & Language from the options shown in the window.
    • Click on Region & Language from the left side panel and check if the
      Country or Region is set to Canada.
    • If it is not set, select from the drop down bar and check if the issues is resolved.
      • Set to Canada
    • From the same page, click on Add a Language under Languages.
    • Select English from the options and select English (Canada).
    • Click on the added language and click on Options. Download the
      Language Pack, Speech and Keyboard language from the window.
    • After the download is complete, go to the Region & language window, select the downloaded language and click on
      Set as Default.
      • Language Pack installed. English (Canada) is the default
    • Close the page and check if the issue is resolved.
      • Page closed = No difference


    Step 2: Also set the time zone by following the steps below:



    • Press Windows icon key on the keyboard, type Settings and select the top most search result.
    • Select Time & Language from the options shown in the window.
    • Click on Date & Time settings, under Time zone options choose your time zone.
      • Time zone set correctly (UTC-05:00) Eastern Time (US & Canada)
    • Restart your PC and check if the issue is resolved.
      • PC restarted and Cortana is still giving me the following message,
        "I'm afraid I'm not available to help in your region."

    I went back to the Speech settings and English (United States) is still
    the only item available in the drop down.

    Windows 10 and Cortana in Canada

    Hi Philip,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    Cortana is available in Canada.

    Have you set the region and language correctly?

    I suggest you to set the region to Canada and language as
    U.S English
    and check if it helps:


    • Go to Control Panel and select Clock, Region and Language.

    • Click on Language to set
      English (United States)
      as default.

    • Next select Region and in the dropdown select country as
      Canada
    Please reply with the status of the issue to assist you further.

    Thanks.
