  1. Blacked out apps


    Hello! My laptop has an issue where some or all the apps are blacked out and I can not open them as seen on the image. This thing has been going around for quite a while now and I want to get rid of it. I don't want to lose any data on my laptop while trying to get rid of this so I'm asking the community. If someone knows the answer I would appreciate it!

    :)

    Mail app will not open on 10041.

    Hello Adam,

    This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it. Blacked out apps :)

    In this Windows 10 build 10041, the Mail, Calendar, and People apps may be broken due to a licensing issue with the Store Beta. To get these apps working again, you need to follow these steps:

    • Open powershell as administrator
    • Run the command Get-appxprovisionedpackage –online | where-object {$_.packagename –like “*windowscommunicationsapps*”} | remove-appxprovisionedpackage –online
    • Re-install Mail, People and Calendar from the Store (green tile)
