snagrat Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 Does anyone know and quick way to enable Cortana in Windows 10 Education 1607? TIA
snagrat Posted October 17, 2016 Author Posted October 17, 2016 Ah I thought you could. So next question then, can we change version from Education to Pro without a rebuild?
Michael Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 Microsoft have actually realised it just won't work in Education that well - can you imagine a whole class 'talking' to their PC? - - - Updated - - - Ah I thought you could. So next question then, can we change version from Education to Pro without a rebuild? You'll need to re-build, but in doing so you'll lose access to 'some' GPOs only accessible in Education or Enterprise.
snagrat Posted October 17, 2016 Author Posted October 17, 2016 If for the Governor surfaces so I will attempts an inplace upgrade and see what happens....
DalekSec Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 It's a shame really, hopefully they will bring it back in and allow it to be turned off via Group Policy or somthing :/
snagrat Posted October 17, 2016 Author Posted October 17, 2016 Does Cortana effect Windows Hello does anyone know? Can't enable that either as moaning about being managed by the administrator but I am not setting any GPO to disable it
Michael Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 It's a shame really, hopefully they will bring it back in and allow it to be turned off via Group Policy or somthing :/ But that's a simple workaround - install Pro for Governor devices as appropriate. I find Cortana is very much an end consumer use rather than a business use. In saying that I only know a handful of people that use Apple's Siri.

That's what Iwill do but ideally would have been nice to give them a device that has been built with our Education image
DalekSec Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 I can't see why Cortana would effect Windows Hello, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_10_editions Edu does has Hello enabled and Cortana disabled. Would think they would disable Hello if it didnt work without it
Michael Posted October 17, 2016 Posted October 17, 2016 Even Pro Education doesn't have Cortana, so you need vanilla Pro.
