为什么没有适用于Windows PC的官方Google Assistant客户端？
这是只有谷歌(Google)才能回答的问题，但这主要与他们彼此之间的紧密完成有关。最重要的是，大多数 PC 用户不使用助手，一个典型的例子是Cortana，它没有得到太多使用。

How to set up Google Assistant on Windows 11/10 PC
Just like Microsoft Cortana and Amаzon’s Alexa, you can also use Google Assistant for PC. However, there is no simple way to start accessing Google Assistant for PC; you can always use it in a slightly indirect way but applicable for Windows 11/10 PC and Chromebook. In this post, we will walk you through how to set up Google Assistant on Windows 11/10.
Before you begin, you need first to enable Voice & Audio Activity for your Google Account.
Here’s how:

When the audio recording setting is off, voice inputs from interactions with Google Search, Assistant, and Maps won’t be saved to your Google Account, even if you’re signed in. If you turn the audio recordings setting off, previously saved audio is not deleted. You can delete your audio recordings at any time.
Is there Google Assistant for PC?
Yes, there is Google Assistant available on Windows PC through an unofficial client. The client lets you use many of the features of Google’s virtual assistant. It is like your personal Google that does everything for you.

--scope https://www.googleapis.com/auth/assistant-sdk-prototype --save --headless
16) You’ll see a command prompt running, and later on, you will see a URL displayed just before a prompt that asks you to Enter the authorization code. Select the entire URL starting with https:// and copy it.
17) Now, open a new browser and paste the URL in the address bar. Use the same Google account credentials to sign in. You’ll see a dialog asking you to Allow access to Win Google Assistant. Tap Allow.
18) In the next window, you’ll see a long string of letters and numbers. Copy those characters using the copy icon at the side.
19) Again, go back to the Command Prompt window and paste the characters you just copied. It is the Authorization code you were asked to enter in Step 16. As soon as you press Enter, you’ll see a ‘credentials saved’
20) That’s it, you have Google Assistant on your Windows 11/10 PC
21) To test, on your CMD prompt window, type:
py -m googlesamples.assistant.grpc.audio_helpers
Your Windows 11/10 computer will record audio of 5 seconds and play it back. If you hear the audio, the Google Assistant setup is done.
22) Now, locate the Project ID you copied and noted in Step 3 and enter it in the CMD prompt window. Then, press Enter.
23) Next, type in:
googlesamples-assistant-devicetool --project-id
followed by space bar, type the Project ID and again press space bar and type in the command below and hit Enter to finish the Google Assistant setup on Windows 11/10.
register-model --manufacturer “Assistant SDK developer” --product-name “Assistant SDK light” --type LIGHT --model “GA4W”
24) If you want Google Assistant with push to talk functionality, enter the command below in the CMD prompt window and hit Enter:
py -m googlesamples.assistant.grpc.pushtotalk --device-model-id “GA4W” --project-id
25) You can now press Enter key while the program is active and speak out about what you want your Google Assistant to do.
Is Google Assistant free to use?
Yes, Google Assistant is completely free to use. It does not cost money. If you happen to see any prompt to pay for Google Assistant, know that it is a scam.
NOTE: PC users can download and install the Google Assistant Unofficial Desktop Client from github.com and then follow the instructions in their Wiki guide to set up the Google Assistant API in Google Cloud.
Is Google Assistant safe to use?
These clients and methods are not official. They are a workaround, and hence no one would say that they are safe. What you can do is use another Google account so your primary account remains secure. While you will not get the same personalization on the phone, you can still use Google Assistant.
Why is there no official Google Assistant client for Windows PC?
That’s something only Google can answer, but it’s mostly related to the close completion they have with each other. On top of this, most PC users don’t use an assistant, and a classic example was Cortana which did not pick up much usage.
