Читать книгу Windows 11 For Dummies - Andy Rathbone - Страница 50

In earlier Windows versions, Cortana, Microsoft’s personal assistant, struck up conversations about computer tasks. Some loved Cortana, but most must have felt it was an intrusion. So Microsoft removed Cortana from Windows 11. If you miss Cortana, bring it back by clicking the Start button, typing Cortana, and pressing Enter.

A window appears, where you sign in with your Microsoft account. Finish by giving Cortana access to your information, which allows Cortana to check your calendar, contacts, location, and search history. Armed with that information, Cortana can manage your appointments as it assists with your life.

As digital butlers go, Cortana lacks references from past employers, leading to a trust issue. Some people feel comfortable with robots managing parts of their lives, and others, understandably, are less comfortable with the thought.

Since Microsoft hid Cortana in Windows 11, the digital assistant will probably be phased out of Windows soon. Don’t become too attached.
