    Can't move apps to another drive


    Hi,

    I would just like to install Phantasy Star Online 2 on my pc but I'm having a weird error code. First of all I wanted it to go to my drive E where I have a lot of space left the option was there to download the app and is highlighted blue so it's clickable but when I do so nothing happens. Alternatively I can install the app on my main Drive C and it works fine the problem is after the update on the app the size is about 69GB and I only have 31GB left on my main drive. The alternative is Drive E. So what I did installed the app first without launching it so it doesn't do the update and that's about 11GB and after I'm done I would transfer it to my Drive E. I tried doing that and it gave me this error message "We couldn't move Phantasy Star Online 2 The operation did not complete successfully. Try again in a bit. The error code is 0x80070005, in case you need it". I also tried to assign Drive E to where new apps will be saved and the same error message shows. I tried to look around and try to find a fix on this error but I can't seem find a solution that works. Much appreciated if anyone can help me.

    Mail app will not open on 10041.

    Hello Adam,

    This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it. Can't move apps to another drive :)

    In this Windows 10 build 10041, the Mail, Calendar, and People apps may be broken due to a licensing issue with the Store Beta. To get these apps working again, you need to follow these steps:

    • Open powershell as administrator
    • Run the command Get-appxprovisionedpackage –online | where-object {$_.packagename –like “*windowscommunicationsapps*”} | remove-appxprovisionedpackage –online
    • Re-install Mail, People and Calendar from the Store (green tile)
