    Can't use Uwp apps :


    Everytime I want to open up a Windows 10 uwp app this pops up. Everytime I open up a Windows 8.1 uwp app it just immorality closes after 2 seconds of being opened. I've tried everything from dcim, sfc, troubleshooter, resetting the apps. I officially think the account is corrupt. Does anyone else have a fix to this?Note: This started happening after I swapped hard drives between two computers.

    :)

    Cortana is an integral part of Windows and she cannot be entirely turned off. However, if you don’t want Cortana functionality available to you on your taskbar, I would suggest you to follow these steps:
    Manage Cortana settings.

    Certain apps are crashing upon start. App reset, re-installation nothing seems to help. Any fixes?

    The app in question are as follows:

    • Engadget UWP
    • Windows Central UWP
    • CNET (Windows 8 App)
    These were working fine in AU.

    I have tried App reset and re-installation from store. Nothing seems to help.

    Any suggestions?

    UWP App Suspension in Task Manager

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    You might see the green leaf with suspended state beside the Minecraft app/program. However, the Green leaf shown beside any process is normal. The green leaf lets you know that the process is ready to use but is in suspended state.



    This allows the computer to consume less RAM without affecting the performance of the processes. In other words, Windows puts the applications/processes in Ready state or blocks them from being executed by the processor until requested
    by user.



    In this scenario we would suggest you to uninstall and reinstall the app and check.

    1. Press Windows + I key to Launch
      Windows Settings
    2. Click Apps and select Apps & features from the left pane
    3. Scroll and select Minecraft and select Uninstall.
    4. Restart the PC and then reinstall from Microsoft Store.


    Please refer this article for additional information:
