Fix Windows errors with Fortect:
Fortect can repair common computer errors by scanning your entire system for damaged or missing OS files and replacing them with the original, working versions. Optimize your PC in 3 simple steps:

  1. Download and Install Fortect on your PC
  2. Use the PC Scan feature to look up any Windows issues (including drivers)
  3. Right-click on Repair, and fix it within a few minutes.

Besides that, it helps you clean up junk files, fix stability problems, and get rid of annoying programs and malware traces.

As an Amazon Echo owner I have long been annoyed that the voice assistant only supported Google Calendar.

This has just changed however, and you are now able to link your Microsoft Account and get reminders on any of your Microsoft Calendars, including Exchange.

To enable to feature follow the instructions below:

1. Go to alexa.amazon.com/spa/index.html#settings/eon or alexa.amazon.co.uk/spa/index.html#settings/eon.

2. Click on Microsoft.

3. Agree to let Amazon access your Microsoft Calendar.

4. You can now close the tab.

5. Refresh the page at Alexa.Amazon.com and you should see the calendars linked.

6. Test the integration by asking:

  • Alexa, when is my next event?
  • Alexa, what’s on my calendar?
  • Alexa, what’s on my calendar tomorrow at 9 p.m.?
  • Alexa, what’s on my calendar Saturday?
  • Alexa, add an event to my calendar.
  • Alexa, add “Buy groceries” to my calendar for Saturday, February 27 at 3 p.m.
