Batu69 Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 Cortana has been designed to do a lot of things, and here we show you a bunch of tips and tricks you can use to be more productive on Windows 10. Cortana on Windows 10 is always ready in the taskbar, or a voice command away, to help you with virtually anything you need. Similar to Google Now and Apple's Siri, Microsoft's digital assistant can create reminders, schedule appointments, track packages and flights, suggest recommendations, find files, and even tell you a joke when you're feeling bored. The fact is that if you haven't been using Cortana, you've been missing out on many cool things you can do. Although there is not a "master list" of everything you can do with the assistant, here's a list with some of the most productive tips and tricks you can do with Cortana on Windows 10. How to use Cortana to manage your calendar How to use Cortana to create notes How to use Cortana to set an alarm How to use Cortana to set timer How to use Cortana to play and search music How to use Cortana to open apps How to use Cortana to send a text message from your PC How to use Cortana to send a quick email How to use Cortana to do math and conversions How to use Cortana to find facts How to use Cortana to move with traffic How to use Cortana to translate languages How to use Cortana for technical support How to use Cortana to manage your calendar Similar to a really world assistant, Cortana can also do an excellent job managing your calendar using the Calendar app. To create a new calendar event, do the following: Open Cortana. In the search box type the following command: Create a calendar event and press Enter. Enter the information for the event. Make sure to add it to the correct calendar. Click Add to complete the task. If you want to use voice commands, you can simply say "Hey Cortana", or click the microphone icon in the search box, followed by the command. Here are some examples: Viewing calendar events "What's on my calendar for today?" or "How's my schedule like this week?" Adding new calendar events "Add dental appointment for tomorrow at 4 pm" or "Add business meeting for Friday at 9 am" Moving calendar events "Move dental appointment to Tuesday 11 am" or "Move business meeting to tomorrow 2 pm" Remember that you can always type your voice commands in the search box, instead of saying them aloud. It's all the same for Cortana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
