Windows 10: Calculator percentage (%) issue in Win 10

Hi there,


About a year ago something happened to the Windows calculator and the percentage (%) calculation is not working properly since then. I tried to report this issue to them but no answer and the problem is still exists.


Before, when I calculated percentage, I used the following steps on the calculator, for example:

100 x 20% and the result was 20 (which was calculated automatically when I pressed the % button)


Now, when I calculate percentage:

100 x 20% the result is 0.2 (which is calculated automatically again)


So, the percentage function is not working properly and Microsoft does not resolve this issue.


Any suggestion? Thank you in advance.



Regards

George

Window's 10 Calculator won't launch

Hi Dan,

There could be a number of factors as to why you are having issues launching the Calculator app on Windows 10. This could be caused by a software conflict or due to the application itself.

You may consider resetting the Calculator app. To do this, refer to the steps below:

• Go to Settings > Apps > Apps & feature.
  
• Click the Calculator app from the list and then choose Advanced options.
  
• Click Reset.

If the issue persists, I suggest that you create a new user account. This is for us to check if the issue is due to a corrupted user profile. To do this, select the Start button, then select
Settings > Accounts > Family & other people > Add someone else to this PC.

Let us know how it goes and we'll assist you further if needed.

• Did you try all the troubleshooting steps suggested on the thread?

In case you have tried all the above steps, I suggest you to place the computer in
Clean boot state and try installing the Calculator app to check if it helps.
Performing a clean boot helps to check if any third party application is causing the issue, as clean boot helps in eliminating software conflicts.
