    Windows Central for W10 and W10M not updating news, forums, etc.

    Same here, since well before Black Friday. I've kind of enjoyed the silence. However ... I'm running Win 11, beta edition, and am wondering if the app just doesn't work with Win 11's insider versions.

    Cortana, be quiet!

    I want to continue to use Hey Cortana ... but I don't want her hollering her responses all over my office, or interrupting whatever audio I'm playing, to respond. Is there a way to silence her, without otherwise disabling her?

    Has anyone else been unable to talk to Cortana since 16.299.15?

    ... and it doesn't get better with the update to 16299.19.

    Has anyone else been unable to talk to Cortana since 16.299.15?

    I've got that problem with both my Surface Pro 4 and my Acer laptop. (Same audio driver in both, I think.) And when trying to test or teach Cortana my voice, it freezes the Cortana panel over the top of the start screen panel, locking me out of the Start Screen AND the power on/off icon.

    Die hard windows fans

    Bought a new Lumia Icon (cheap!) to replace the old Lumia Icon a couple months ago when its battery died ... now locked into the last fast-lane upgrade that works w/ Icon, can't run Kindle ... but other than that, it's what I'm sticking with until it dies. When it dies, I'll choose again.

    Could I still update an Icon to 15063.2?

    Loading 15063.2 via slow ring on my brand-new Icon as we speak. Thanks.

    Could I still update an Icon to 15063.2?

    My Lumia Icon's battery is dying. Other than battery life, I'm very satisfied for now with build 15063.2 (ver. 1703). If I could replace it with another (used) Icon, would MS let me update it to the same build?

    Denim + Audible.com = Trouble

    Just to say it's all better with the latest 2 Audible updates.

    Denim + Audible.com = Trouble

    The Audible.com app worked adequately for me on the Lumia Icon with Black and 8.0 or 8.1DP ... but it is dreadful now with Denim and 8.1.1. A play command will work once, and then (after almost any other operation at all -- changing from earphone to bluetooth or onboard speaker, using another...

    Icon + Denim: What apps?

    Now that the Icon is finally running on Denim, what were all those apps we were waiting for, that wouldn't run without the update?

    8.1 DP Calendar LiveTile contents?

    Just a followup ... with the Denim firmware and the official 8.1.1 update, it appears that this is resolved.

    Official 8.1/Denim for the Icon?

    Maybe we should start a new thread for magical thinking.

    Official 8.1/Denim for the Icon?

    An honest answer. Good for her.

    Official 8.1/Denim for the Icon?

    Nope. W10 talkers will ignore Verizon victims completely, as though we all have denim & 8.1 already.

    Default Reminder

    I too would like to see a way to set the >>default<< reminder time to give a warning longer than 15 minutes, without having to set it every time.

    Official 8.1/Denim for the Icon?

    No fair! I've been waiting and waiting, and I STILL don't have the bug in Extras & Info! What's up with that, Verizon?

    Official 8.1/Denim for the Icon?

    I didn't think that sounded plausible until I read the job description. Yikes. Did they dump the wrong Nokia employee?

    Official 8.1/Denim for the Icon?

    Yep, there it is. Click "Essentials." Is it new, or has it been there a while?
