Windows 10: Calculator currency convertor not working

Windows 10 Calculator will take me to the Currency Convertor but no currencies are displayed and I cannot enter any numbers. Presumably I have disabled an important permission. Can anyone point in the direction of what needs to be enabled?

In the Calcualtor App under the Currency Convertor option, where does it pull the rate from? Is it the spot rate?

Hi Simon,

Calculator app for Windows 10 is also connected to the Microsoft services through the internet. That's why you will always get the updated currency rate.

Let us know if you have other concerns.

 

Currency conversion in Windows Calculator and other Currency Conversions Apps do not work

The currency conversion tool n the Windows Calculator stopped working on around 04/02/2020.

I've found that other currency conversion apps will not work. They seem to have trouble accessing the internet.

There isn't an issue with the firewall.

Have run SFC that does not report a problem,

but one diagnostic test run through Power Shell suggests a number of issues around .xml files or .edb files that may have been moved or no longer exist, or won't update because a superseded version exists.

I have tried both a reset, and then a complete uninstall and reinstall of the calculator and the other apps and there is no difference.
