Since a few days Windows 10 constantly nags me with an error message "Something happened, and we couldn't install a feature".
By clicking on the error message I am brought to Manage Optional Features. The History lists several failed attempts to install English (US) Speech Recognition
. The install fails with error 0x80070422 (terse as usual, thanks Microsoft).
Hence the questions:
- Why is Windows 10 trying to install this component? I haven't asked for it and it will be of little use to me.
- What does the error mean (i.e. Why the install fails)?
- How do I tell Windows to give up?
