Any Fix For Cortana Crashes?

[Sedp23]

I'm on build 10572, works great for the most part, but I'm noticing out the blue when I'm telling Cortana to call or text someone it crashes. It didn't do this when I first installed this build a week ago but this just started happening over the last couple days. Besides a hard reset is there a fix for this.

You can always perform a soft reset first? Also does cortana search weather information search any contact from your contact list?

Cortana searches for weather every time I launch it

That's interesting. It certainly looks like a bug. Or are you referring to the default weather cards as search results?

The correct way to invoke a Cortana search is long press the search button to invoke Cortana in listening mode.

I found Cortana to be pretty useless after updating to 10581 on my L1020. When I would ask for directions and what not, she would bring up random internet searches for the locations I asked for. Was gonna use my 1020 as a daily driver, but decided to go back to my ativ s and wait.

Cortana was flawless in 8.1 she heard me from across the room, with the new build she's suddenly hard of hearing lol.. Useless in 10581.
