Mail app will not open on 10041.


Hello Adam,

This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it.

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)

 

Access localhost from another computer

Localhost, as the name suggests, points at the localhost. Use the hostname or IP from your computer on their PC's. ie something in the 192.168.x.x or 10.0.0.x range most likely.

 

"PWA" auto-generated app icon on windows store, why?

I submitted my app to the store, uploaded all the graphic assets included the 2 icons .png of suggested sizes,

but on the windows store now the app doesn't show the official icon, has a "PWA" auto generated title instead.

why is that? can i show the app icon without resending the app?
