Windows 10: Calculator is missing

I had a calculator app when I first upgraded to 10 and I loved it because it would open directly to whatever conversion table you used last which was kg to lbs. It was a pain in the windows 7 & 8 version. You have to pick weight from the list them pick each category ie kg and lbs. Seriously, who converts carats on a routine basis except jewelers?? The MS Edge got corrupted and I ended up replacing that particular user profile and now poof! the calculator is gone. Either that or it was removed in one of the recent OS updates.

 

I cannot find any calculator on my computer after switching to Windows 10. So I downloaded Microsoft Calculator Plus but it won't open. There's a dialog box that says I have to search in the App store. Is this supposed to be progress?

Click on Start/All apps/Calculator:





or navigate to C:\Windows\System32 and click on calc.exe:

 

Thank you very much Edwin. It works now!

 

Sorry to bump an old(ish) thread but I've just started having this problem. Yesterday everything was working fine. I have a Logitech keyboard with a calculator button on it, mapped to the calc app. It has worked flawlessly for years.

Today I hit the calc button and get this message:





Huh??

I went to C:\Windows\System32 and manually tried to open it... same message.

In the Cortana search for "calc" I get these results:





The app just seems to have evaporated, minus all the shortcuts that still point to it. I even used it this morning. Around lunchtime I closed the lid and let it go to sleep. I just woke it up now and have this problem.

This Surface Pro 3 has been one surprise after another. Any ideas?

 

The calculator should be the easiest thing to find. Windows10 is very dissapointing*Shock
