Vince. Cortana is a feature in Windows 10 similar to the voice assistant called Seri used on Apple devices such as I-phones. You will need a headset microphone, or if you have a laptop with a built-in hands free microphone, you would be able to use Cortana. As an example, you could ask Cortana what the weather conditions are in your area. Or, as some list members have stated, Cortana can tell jokes. Having said all of this, I am still waiting for my upgrade notification from Microsoft, so I don't yet have Cortana, smile. If I misspelled the Apple I-phone voice assistant's name, I certainly didn't mean to.

Hi all. I want to thank Chris for the instructions to get rid of the Windows password. I now can have Windows 10 boot directly to the desktop. It takes a while to get there, but eventually it does. Cortana works great! Just for your information, and thanks again, Chris.
