    need help !

    I just fresh install last time and just realize i cannot open those default apps, like calculator and photo every tips on internet already tried until "sfc /scannow" show it not find any integrity violation but when iam in clean boot, i can open those applications

    what i can conclude it there is something prevent me to access the application because, if i want to open like picture i got error message "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may not have the appropriate permission to access the item" and im sure i already the administrator

    Mail app will not open on 10041.


    Hello Adam,

    This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it. default apps cannot open like calculator, sticky, store, etc :)

    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)

    Lost default photo viewer after profile rebuild


    Thanks Brink. I've tried those steps before i started searching Google. After the profile rebuild i don't have the Photo app listed to choose to make it default in either the system settings for default apps or the Open With option.

    I can't even find it doing a search. Seems to have been removed somehow with the profile rebuild, which doesn't make sense.

    Might be helpful to list what i've done default apps cannot open like calculator, sticky, store, etc :) I've done the open with check, the choose default program in the system menu, tried that in device manager default programs also. I've checked the programs and features Turn windows features on/off and it's not listed there (never thought it was but that was a suggestion), searched the MS Store, it's not listed there either.

    I don't like playing in the registry unless i have defined steps and haven't found anything for this yet, just the Win7 version like in my OP.
