Not only can we get help through a subpage, but the system itself offers detailed help thanks to Cortana's introduction. Yes, even though practically all of us move past Cortana Olympically it is an excellent tool for getting help.

Get help fast Windows 10 with F1

The first option we will see may be the best for what you are looking for. Also, it is the easiest method to get help in Windows 10 and it is using the "F1" key.

Thanks to this key, we can get help for whatever we are doing in Windows. For example, if we are in the file explorer and press F1, Microsoft Edge will open showing us help links for this element.

This we can also do with absolutely all the applications installed on our computer, from Word to Chrome, through Paint, Photoshop, etc. We only have to be with this program active so that by pressing F1 the help center opens

If we also want a generic help, we can press F1 while on the Desktop. Automatically Microsoft Edge will open, indicating how to access Microsoft Support or the Windows help application.

We can do it directly by browsing, or we can click on the button that says "Open the application get help". Click on it, a window will appear where we can write our problem.

Get help through Microsoft Support

Directly related to the previous one, we can go to the official Microsoft Support website. We can search for information about the problem we have or enter the community chats to talk or search for topics related to our problem.

Get help Windows 10 using Cortana

Cortana is one of the great additions since Windows 8. It is a personal assistant designed to give support and help to the user, in addition to providing search options for files and equipment configuration.

This tool is designed to learn from your actions, that is, the more you use it, the more personalized the actions will be. This wizard can work both by text written from the keyboard and by your voice through a microphone.

To use it as an aid we will do the following:

• We will go to the Cortana search bar located in your taskbar. If it does not appear, right click on the taskbar and go to the "Cortana" option and click on "Show search box"

• Now click on the search bar by clicking and click on the configuration wheel.

• Once inside the configuration, activate the options "Allow Cortana to respond" and "Allow Cortana to listen to my commands", in this way we will have Cortana's help active for when we want. A box will open for us to confirm the activation. Now we will have Cortana activated so that it looks for what we write or say.To speak we must have a microphone activated and click on the microphone icon on the right side of the search engine. Or use the keyboard and write normally.

Get help through Microsoft online support

If you need more specific and personalized help than that provided by the Microsoft or Cortana page, we will also have online technical support available. To access this solution we will do the following:

• We write in the browser of Cortana or Windows "Support" and click on the main icon.

• Now we write our problem and click on "next". We will get another window where we will have to select the product for which we want help and also our problem. If we display this menu, the "Technical Support" option will appear. Let's give this one.

Another window will appear where we will have three options: "Call back", "Chat" and "Ask the community". We are going to choose "Chat". Although through the community forums there are also a large number of solutions to almost everything that we can think of, so it is also an excellent option. In this way we can speak to an assistant via chat directly from our PC.

The response has been very fast for our case. In fact, it's not a working one that all users know exists, so help is almost always available instantly.

Get help Windows 10 scheduling a call

In addition to helping us through chat, we can also request technical support by scheduling a call. We can select the option that they call us.

• Through the steps in the previous section, we will reach the window where, in addition to the chat option, the "Call me back" option also appears . If we enter, we will only have to put our phone number and then they will call us.

These are all the options that Microsoft has to get Windows 10 help. You can see that there are many possibilities. Which one do you like the most? If you don't like any, that's why you have San-Google. Or to us, you can always leave your questions in the comments in the chat.
