Watch Cortana Running On Windows 10



Cortana, which was until now only available for Windows Phone will now be available on desktop as well as part of Windows 10 although .

WinBeta says, 
"From the get go, Cortana can do pretty much everything the Windows Phone version can. This includes reminders, call people with skype, check my location/maps, play/pause music, launch apps, check the weather and more. Right now, Cortana doesn't have a personality in Windows 10, meaning she doesn't answer questions like "Who are you", however we have it on good authority that she will have this ability by the time she rolls out to the public."
Well, Windows 10 isn’t expected to launch for quite a while so for now all you can do is watch the video above to see Cortana in action.
