  1. Can't open MS Get Help app


    When in Microsoft support on the "contact us" screen there is a button for the Get Help app. When I click it, a pop-up box asks if I want to open URL:ms-contact-support. I click it, but nothing happens. Can anyone help?

    :)

    Mail app will not open on 10041.


    Hello Adam,

    This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it. Can't open MS Get Help app :)

    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)
