  2. Windows Installer popup on Windows 10 will not cancel

    Hi Brian,

    For us to isolate the issue with the Windows Installer pop-up that can't be cancelled, we would like to know the following:

    • Were there any changes made on your computer prior to the issue (e.g., updates, software installation)?
    • When you say "It will not cancel", can you tell us what happens when you try canceling it?
    • To make sure that we have not missed on anything, what troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    In he meantime, we suggest that you perform a clean boot. It will help us determine if there are any third-party
    programs/apps that is causing the issue. It could be some other applications or programs.

    We look forward to your response.

    Windows 10 messaging app can't send skype messages but can receive them.

    Hello Michael,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    We regret the inconvenience caused to you and complete understand how frustrating it is when things doesn't work at times.

    Let's try the below steps and check if it helps to resolve the issue.

    Step 1: I would suggest you to run the
    Troubleshooter for Windows App and see if it helps to resolve the issue.

    Fix problems with apps from Microsoft Store

    Step 2: If issue persists then there might be a chance that the Messaging apps may be broken due to a licensing issue with the Store. To get these apps working again, you need to follow these steps:


    • Open powershell
      as administrator. Type PowerShell in the search box, right click on it and select
      run as administrator.

    • Run the command get-appxpackage *Microsoft.Messaging* | remove-appxpackage

    • This will un-install Windows Messaging app.

    • Re-install Messaging app from Windows Store.

    Hope it helps. Do let us know if you need further assistance, we will be happy to assist you.

    Thank you.
