    Hey ppl,

    Just wondering has anyone got Cortana on Windows 10 working yet? I have installed windows 10 and the locale is Ireland and the keyboard I use is American but Cortana doesn't like this setup. Has anyone got it working yet, or is it just me and my bad setup?

    TIA

    No, it's not you - Cortana has only been "released" for a few of the bigger regions so far, unfortunately. No word yet on when other regions will be enabled.

    For now, you have to set your Region to US or UK to use Cortana

    Why isn't Cortana in my region or language?

    Cortana is available in the following countries/regions: China, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, United Kingdom, and United States. Cortana is available in these languages: Chinese (Simplified), English (U.K.), English (U.S.), French, Italian, German, and Spanish
    To use Cortana, all these settings must be set to the same language:•Languages (this is your device language)
    •Speech language (language pack must be installed)
    •Country or region

    Note: If you change your region, you might not be able to shop at Store, or use things you've purchased, like memberships and subscriptions, games, movies, TV, and music.
