Guy, I've been put in charge of running the Windows 10 upgrade for our corporation. I'm working on putting a plan in front of our Directors to get their support, because without it, it's not going to happen. Our organization is primarily a Windows 7 shop, just recently pushed to upgrade from XP...

Hello, I currently have an HTPC running Windows 8.1. I'm planning on upgrading it to Windows 10 when available. I would like to use "Hey Cortana" on it, but I'm thinking I need to get a decent microphone for it to work well. I'm thinking of a microphone similar to the quality that Amazon Echo...

Can you use "Hey Cortana" in Windows 10 to play specific song, album, or artist from your music? Can you use "Hey Cortana" in Windows 10 to play specific song, album, or artist from your music? I'm hoping to be able to do this, similar to the way Amazon Echo works. I'm running Windows 10 10158...

I'm running W10 on my SP3. So far, Cortana seams to be lacking in functionality, at least compared to the phone. She will return me the weather, but when I ask for things like "Add an appointment to my calendar" she just does a internet search. Do we have a list somewhere of her capabilities so far?

I'm having problems getting IE to open up when in tablet mode. It wont open at all. I can browse to iexplorer.exe and open the desktop version though. IE opens just fine when not in tablet mode. Also, when I restart, it doesn't default to tablet mode. Any ideas on what I should check? Thanks!

I just recently updated to the latest build of Windows 10. Now OneDrive won't start, well it starts and I start to go through the wizard and right after selecting the location it crashes and I get a message saying "Microsoft OneDrive has stopped working". Anyone have any ideas on how to fix it...

What happens when you press the Cortana button while paired to a iPhone? Will it launch Siri?

Hello, I just purchased a Lenovo Miix 2 8", it is refurbished. I can't find any software or reference to the Veriface Pro software. Do I need to download it separately? Also, I see a message on the desktop that says that secure boot isn't configured correctly. Any ideas? Thanks!

Is there a reason why a forum was never created for the Lenovo ThinkPad 8? Can we have one? Thanks!

Hello, I currently own a Surface Pro 3 i7 model. I love it, but I would like a smaller more portable device. What are the best options out there? What would give me my biggest bang for my dollar? Thanks!

Is anyone else hoping that MS releases a Touch Cover? I like my Type Cover for my SP3, but for traveling, I would much prefer the Touch Cover since it's thinner. I rarely use the keyboard when traveling, it's just nice to have in case I need it and it also provides a little screen protection.

Cortana time based reminders are not working on my wife's Lumia 822. I've tried several times, but the reminders just never go off. Has anyone else had this issue? We've never really tried location based reminders, so I'm not sure if they work. All reminders work just fine on my Lumia Icon and...

Why does closing the last metro app take me to the desktop on my SP3? Is there a way to have it go to the start screen instead?

With my SP2, I'm used to the display being able to turn off, but my machine remains connected to vpn and my terminal server applications. With the SP3, it seems to be going into connected standby which loses vpn and my terminal server sessions. I can't seem to find a way for the display to just...

Does anyone know how to change the resolution to something lowering without causing it to letterbox? I want to do that because I don't like the scaling it does on my larger external monitors. To get around the scaling on my external monitors with my SP2, I changed the resolution down to 1366x768.

Is there a way to just tap the screen where you want to focus and have the Nokia camera app take a picture like how the built-in camera app works? I have a Lumia Icon running 8.1. Thanks!

I have 2 phones, a Lumia 920 on ATT and a Nokia Lumia Icon. Is there a way to speed up the syncing/backing up of the Messages to/from OneDrive? As it stands, I do most of my texting from my Lumia 920 because it's my primary number and right now I can see those text messages on my Icon the...

Guys, I'm really confused. I have a Lumia 920 that I upgraded to 8.1. When I go to my people hub and go to What's New, I see a Facebook and Twitter feed. I just recently got a Nokia Lumia Icon and I upgraded it to 8.1, but I don't see Facebook in the feed, I only see Twitter. I have the regular...

Hello, This may seem like a weird question. I'm wondering if I can get Cortana to alert me if the temperature is going to drop below a certain degree either soon or at night. We purchased some tomato plants and it's too early to plant here, but we would like to leave them on the porch as long...
