The Cortana digital assistant is a key feature of Windows 10 or at least, that's what Microsoft thinks and tries to make us believe too, by rolling out updates that improve its capabilities.
But with a comparison of Cortana with Google Assistant and Apple's Siri, it seems that the biggest difference Microsoft faces is the lack of a mobile platform.
Windows 10 Mobile is in maintenance mode and is scheduled to stop being supported in 2019 media. So it is clear that Microsoft should focus all its efforts on transferring the digital assistant elsewhere, to tablets and other devices such as speakers.
In Windows 10, Cortana is still a feature that most do not use, not necessarily because it is not useful, but because a digital assistant on a computer does not make much sense.
Despite the modern touches, many users του Windows εξακολουθούν να βλέπουν το λειτουργικό system like a desktop platform to be used with a mouse and keyboard.
Sure, the touch has developed very late and the digital pen can become more and more important, but there are too many who do not operate their computer with the help of a digital assistant.
A Publication in reddit proves that I am not the only one who believes that Cortana's digital assistant is not the most successful feature of Windows 10.
We should also mention that Microsoft could do more to make Cortana much more useful. Cortana is still available in a few countries, which obviously affects its adoption throughout the world. At the same time, new features are added, but at a rather slow pace, as they are usually made available through the release of new versions of the operating system.
It's no secret that many users are already removing the icon from the bar work and those who do not remove it forget that it exists.
What do you say? Does it mean a typical user to operate the Windows digital assistant, or should it only be available as an assistive technology for people in need?

Being on a regular computer and trying to get Cortana what to do while you could do it yourself with a mouse click is not the best you could do.
Technology is a long way to be able to play with Cortana, at the moment it's just getting even worse on Windows
It is not useful here. Of course when you watch a movie and tell Cortana to lower or raise the volume, is it invaluable ??. But as stated correctly above, in the absence of a mobile platform it is difficult to accept. Anyway, I use it.
a nice example, makes life easier
