Specifically, the software giant forgot to renew this certificate, like the portal Petri reports, Microsoft is working flat out to fix the bug.

Clearly, Twitter users did not miss Microsoft’s mockery of the error. For example, it was pointed out that Microsoft should set up a reminder via Outlook the next time, so as not to forget to renew the certificate.

There were also jokes related to Cortana’s skills versus Alexa’s in the Twitter comments on Microsoft’s original message.
