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, but so far I can't get it to work.

In both windows 10 (WP and Desktop) you will be able to use cortana in the same way you use in windows phone 8.1 :wink:

Wait for the official release

You say that you can use cortana in the same way on both WP8.1 and W10... In W10, I could use "Hey Cortana", but I can't find that option in WP8.1. Can you shed some light on that?

What I'm asking for is not necessarily "Hey Cortana" specific. It's more the commands to do things. For example if I pull up Cortana on my Lumia Icon, and say "Play under the water", my phone will start playing the song called "under the water" that is in my music library, even though the song is not downloaded local, it's just stored in my OneDrive Music folder. If I do the same think on my S3 running Windows 10162, Cortana just searches Bing for "Play under the water" instead of playing the song from my music.

some messed up stuff there. only thing i ever hated about WP is the lack of an OEM phone like the Google Nexus 4,5,6 and all iPhones. everything is so fragmented when the carriers decide if you get an update or not

I had "Hey Cortana" on my 930 (international version) with 8.x, but I do not have it in W10, 10149.
