    Folder rename prompt closes automatically.


    Hi all,

    I'm using a custom built desktop with Windows 10 Pro. I'm having issues when I rename a folder. It closes the rename prompt on its own in about 2-3 seconds after I've clicked rename. How do I fix this? Also this may not be related but a folder with a lot of images 50+ keeps refreshing on its own and takes me to the 1st picture in the folder every five seconds and hence I can't scroll down using mouse since it refreshes and takes me to the top. Anyone else facing these issues?

    Specs:
    Intel i7 - 4790K @ 4.00GHz
    16GB Ram
    64 Bit OS
    nVidia GTX 760

    :)

    Try these steps to resolve the issue:

    Uninstall the Mahjong App from Setting > Apps > Apps & Feature

    Rename Software Distribution folder:

    Go to command prompt and run it as admin, then type this command and hit enter:

    net stop wuauserv



    Click the Start Button, in the "Start Search" box, type in "%windir%" (without the quotes) and press Enter.In the opened folder, look for the folder named "SoftwareDistribution".

    Right-click on the folder, select Rename and type "SoftwareDistribution.old" or "SDold" (without the quotes) to rename this folder.

    Go back to command prompt and type this command and hit enter:

    net start wuauserv

    Now close the command prompt

    Reset Microsoft Store

    press windows key + R, then type in the run box: wsreset

    Now, download and install the game again.
