    how to reverse "open with" option


    Recently I went to delete a cursor file that I added into the folder but accidentally opened it with paint.net. Now all of the files have the paint.net option on them and I can't view the image of each of the cursors. Is there a way for me to revert it back to how it was before?

    :)

    Mail app will not open on 10041.

    Hello Adam,

    This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it. how to reverse "open with" option :)

    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)
