    Xbox app crashing seconds after opening

    troubleshooter found nothing, xbox support couldnt help.

    though it appears to be my friends list loading that crashes the app, i have a 2 second window between opening the app and it crashing and if i can in that window change it from showing friends to recent players the app doesnt crash

    Microsoft Edge closes/crashes seconds after opening

    Mine was crashing seconds after opening on several different computers. I couldn't figure out what the deal was. Then I disabled "Sync" in settings (for favorites/reading list) and now it doesn't crash at all. Not sure if this helps anyone else, but I
    thought it was worth mentioning.

    How can I fix the settings app from crashing ? It opens for a second or two then closes !

    Store App opens loads for about a second then closes


    1. Go to "This PC"
    2. Double click "OS (CHow can I fix the settings app from crashing ? It opens for a second or two then closes ! :)"
    3. Open "Users"
    4. Open your username (The Profile you are currently working in)
    5. Open "AppData"
    6. Open "Local"
    7. Open "Packages"
    8. Open "Microsoft.WindowsStore_8wekyb3d8bbwe"
    9. Open "LocalCache"
    10. Delete the entire folder, with contents, you see there.
    For those who didn't want/need a step by step:
    C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.WindowsStore_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache
    Then delete the one folder in LocalCache.
    And that's pretty much it. Opened store and no issues after. Also if anyone is having issues with the Mail App, if you have AVG, it's the firewall on that so just turn it off and mail will start syncing. Hope this helps everyone.
