  1. Cant access Microsoft apps as Standard user


    Received new PC from MICROSOFT and upgraded to Windows 11. Now i can not access Microsoft Apps from Standard user. I can from Loacl admin but not Standard user account. I have seen several posts but nothing seems to work and Microsoft being a superp power doesnt seem to care... Once I get hacked becausde I have to create a super user to access the calculator on my Windows 11 upgrade maybe i will hear back from the superpower.

  2. calendar & mail work in administrator account but not on standard user one

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    This issue occurs if the standard user account is corrupted.

    1) Are you able to access and use other apps in the standard user account?

    I suggest you to remove the standard user account and then try to create a new standard user account and check if it helps.

    To remove follow the below steps.

    1) Open Settings and click on Accounts.

    2) Next select Family and other users.

    3) Click on the standard user account and click on Remove.

    To add user account follow the below steps.

    1) Open Settings and click on Accounts.

    2) Next select Family and other users.

    3) Click on Add other sure to this PC and then follow the on screen instructions to create the New standard User Account.

    If the issue still persists, I suggest you to run the Microsoft Account troubleshooter and check if it helps.

    Refer to the following link to run the troubleshooter:

    Microsoft Account Troubleshooter

    Hope it helps. Let us know the status of the issue.

    Thanks.

    • Under people, select the user account, and click Change account type.

      OK
      .
