CDP or Connected Devices Platform is a service used to synchronize data such as Contacts, Mails, Calendar, OneDrive, etc. If you do not use many of these services, you can disable them.

Launch the Run dialog box .
Type Regedit in the blank field of the box and press Enter to open Registry Editor.
In the Registry window that opens, navigate to the following path address:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\CDPUserSvcSwitch to the right panel and double-click on the Start key to edit its value.
In the Edit String box that appears, change the number from the default value to 4 .
This will disable the service.
Now, close Registry Editor and exit.
Restart your PC to allow the changes to take effect.

New fix:
Yes, just go to App & Features->Cortana->Advanced Option->Reset. Try this method if you have popup message of Win32Bridge server error.
