Windows 10: I cant open a multitude of apps. Help!

I first noticed this happening to me on Krita, I haven't drawn in a while and now the perfect time but when I clicked on the icon, I had the little blue circle thing show that is was loading but the no window would pop up. It's happening with a few other apps (all apps that I haven't used in a while) and I don't understand why.

The really weird thing is, I wanted to delete Krita and redownload to see if that would fix it but files said that Krita was open do I couldn't delete it. But It doesn't show that anything is open! So I restarted my PC so the window closes then I uninstalled and redownloaded Krita and the same problem is occuring.

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)

 

Cannot open mail app settings


OK, my next suggestion was going to be uninstalling Mail and Calendar and reinstalling from the Windows Store. You can have a go at this by following these steps.

1. Open the Start menu, type Windows PowerShell.
2. Right click on the Windows PowerShell and select Run as administrator.
3. Enter the below command to remove the Mail and calendar app.

get-appxpackage *microsoft.windowscommunicationsapps* | remove-appxpackage

After performing the above steps, install the Mail and calendar app from the Windows Store.

Hope this helps, you will, of course, have to add you accounts back again.

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!
