For those who were worried about the bug in codegen[^], it's now been fixed in today's patches.
Quote: Update 8/11/2015: We released an updated version of RyuJIT today, which resolves this advisory. The update was released as Microsoft Security Bulletin MS15-092 and is available on Windows Update or via direct download as KB3086251. The update resolves: CoreCLR #1296, CoreCLR #1299, and VisualFSharp #536. Major thanks to the developers who reported these issues. Thanks to everyone for their patience.

For anyone else on Windows 10 who's confused that neither 3086251[^] nor MS15-092[^] appear in Windows Update, there's a tiny foot-note in the security bulletin which explains:
The Windows 10 update is cumulative. In addition to containing non-security updates, it also contains all of the security fixes for all of the Windows 10-affected vulnerabilities shipping with this month’s security release. The update is available via the Windows Update Catalog only. See Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 3081436[^] for more information and download links.
So on Windows 10, this will appear as Cumulative Update for Windows 10 for x64-based Systems (KB3081436).

Should've been posted to and emailed out as part of the Insider.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Yeah, but then people would have complained that the post was days old (even with the update on it).

- You can't drag an address from Edge onto the desktop to create a shortcut. Dumb omission.
- Connecting to a VPN now requires 4 clicks (including having the "Settings" dialog open) instead of two clicks almost in-place)
- No
areaAero. I know it's in there, buried, but so far I've not had any luck enabling it.
...and if that's all I can find to complain about then something went right somewhere.

Cortana isn't available in Canada. It's available in the US and UK, but not Canada. This is par for the course - so much so that I no longer get angry - just sad.
Resolution? No issues my end.

Check you have the correct speech and language packs installed for your region. That's the usual issue if you can get Cortana in your country.

What did you Canucks do to deserve such mistreatment?
Oh yeah, you gave us Alanis Morissette.
She is enough to cancel out all that Rush and BTO gave to us.

Okay, you made me Google it (not Bing - ha ha).
According to this[^] and this[^] you can...

I wonder why Canada (i.e. Canadian people) has so much limitations (Quebec overall)...
I was twice there (BC) and I felt in love for that country...
US are envy, maybe?
|
|
|
|
|
What's even more laughable is that BC is a short ferry ride away from the Microsoft HQ.
The difficult may take time, the impossible a little longer.

I'd wager it has something to do with the law differences between countries. In this case, I would immediately assume there are differences in privacy laws since Cortana is doing a lot of listening and transmitting of personal or in-home communication.

Gonna love even more Canada (and less Cortana)
|
|

Cortana isn't available 'cause they can't get the accent down right. It keeps saying abowt instead of aboot.
|
|
|
|
|
Also, because it was too difficult to get the voice recognition engine to filter out all the "eh"s.
|
|
|
|
|
Yeah, probably Cortana's French isn't good enough.

I've had some weird resolution issues, but I guess that's what I get for having a 4K monitor...
