Hi Mukesh Sir, Somehow, this time, in Cortana and Search settings, I did receive some useful information, telling me that I was on the right track. But Cortana wanted me to sign in with a Microsoft account, which I have created, but for some unknown reason cannot sign in with on my computer. Please, would it be possible for you to give me a quick Skype walkthrough on some of this stuff, if possible? Please mail me personally if that request could be accomodated.. Thanks for all the help.
