Windows 10 Cortana Issues?

[MonKENy]

Anyone else running build 10074 that cant hear her? She talks and the circles move but no sound. Everything else gives sound. Someone posted a solution of making sure the windows sound and dedicated sound manager were set right but I disabled the dedicated manager and its still not working.

Anyone else have a solution?

The WHQL version of W10 fix this problem?

It works for me, no problems. Though I don't know how to use voice commands without clicking the little microphone every time.

The command is "Hey Cortana" (same as mobile where only available with certain chips).

I had no idea there was a settings option behind one of those icons on the left there. Thanks. That's much better so I can hide the search bar and just use voice like I do with my Xbox One sometimes.

Anyone know how to totally disable cortana? I thought I did but I look under background processes and it's still taking about 35MB.

Maybe this will help? http://www.pcworld.com/article/2949...indows-10s-info-hungry-digital-assistant.html

If you did that then I don't know, every link says the same thing to disable it.

Yeah, that's all off. I turned most of the privacy settings off too.

I'm almost certain there's a way to completely remove it's memory footprint. SOmeone will figure out a solution I'm pretty sure.

Check 'Services' and 'Task Scheduler' (there's certainly other stuff to be disabled anyway).
