Windows 10: How do I revert to the Mail for Windows 10 app?

The new app is unnecessarily bloated. I would estimate it takes roughly 3x longer to load. I have reset my windows installation a few days ago and was presented with the option to try the new app; one post mentioned a button at the top to revert, but that is now outdated, and I cannot access the old app.Mind you, it takes 3x longer on a Ryzen 5 5500 and 1050 TI with a Samsung 870 EVO. Is there a way to revert to the old app, or is MS hellbent on forcing people on a budget to buy new equipment they wouldn't need to buy otherwise? On the verge of switching to Linux when they kill win 10, if wind

Mail app will not open on 10041.

Hello Adam,

This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it.

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)

 

Mail app will not open on 10041.

Hey Shawn,
I did that to no avail, then I ran WSReset.exe; now I'm good on all 3, Mail, Calendar and People! *Confused
Go figure!
