Windows 10: Can't install "Mail, Calendar and People" app (errorcode 0x80073cff)

I had "Mail Calendar and People" app installed on my Windows 10 build 9926, then 10041 update came and after it finished installing, that app was gone!
And since then I couldn't install it back, gives the errorcode 0x80073cff as you can see on the screenshot below:

Lumia 930 Outlook App

But that is just what you are not seeing. Mail, Calendar and Contacts ARE Outlook. The three programs together are Outlook.

 

Cortana is not recognizing my contacts

For me the solution was syncing my contacts into the People app. Cortana could not / would not pull contact info from Outlook, she could only get it from the people app. So now my mail, contacts and calendar are all redundant because I have it in Outlook
and in "Calendar", "People" and "Mail" but Cortana is fully functioning again.

 

Try the steps from here

Mail app will not open on 10041.

 

Don't worry you are not alone. Mine are also missing. But personally I don't care for those apps on my PC as long as they are working fine on my Windows Phone.

How did you install your 10041? Online or clean install from ISO?

 

I don't really care for most of the apps, but I like Mail and that it gives notifications. And since I have only a Symbian phone yet, it helps a lot.
10041 was and upgrade from 9926. I installed the first technical preview build that was available and upgraded since then.

Thanks, it solved the problem. *Smile

 

It is one of the "known problems" that MS published with this build. Did you try the powershell in @Dude 's link? Worked for me.

 

Good to know it's sorted out. *Smile
