Cortana "Something went wrong."
I finally upgraded to Windows 10 a week ago, and most things work fine. Cortana wakes up when I say, "hey, Cortana," then responds with "Something went wrong." Every time.
If I say, "hey Cortana, play some music," it plays music from my PC.
If I say, "hey Cortana, Open IE," it says, "Okay, here's Netbeans IDE 8.1." Then, the PC makes a "critical stop" sound, and Cortana locks up. The little dots keeps going across the top of the Cortana windows, but it never recovers.
If I say, "hey Cortana, Open Internet Explorer," it says, "Sure thing, starting Internet Explorer." Then, the PC makes a "critical stop" sound, and Cortana locks up. The little dots keeps going across the top of the Cortana windows, but it never recovers.
I give it lots of other commands, sometimes it acts like it recognizes what I'm saying and tries to do something,
- "What's the weather?" "Okay starting weather."
- "I want to buy a Microsoft surface PC" "Okay, starting Services" or "Opening This PC."
It invariably responds, as described above with a "critical stop," and Cortana spins and spins.
After the critical stop, my only recourse is to stops Cortana from the Task Manager.
So the microphone (Microsoft Lifecam HD 5001) works with Cortana, because it wakes up, and the mic works with other apps.
