Windows 10 Mail App can't type in body

Hi,

Thank you for contacting Microsoft community.

I suggest you to follow the below methods and check if it helps.

Method 1: I suggest you to run App troubleshooter and check if it helps.

• Type ‘Troubleshooting’ in the search next to start.
• Click on ‘View All’ on left side and select ‘Windows store Apps’.
• Follow the onscreen instructions.

Method 2: I suggest you to follow below steps to run the power shell command for mail app issues.

• Open an Elevated Powershell prompt by pressing the Windows Key, typing Powershell, then pressing
  “Ctrl+Shift+Enter”.
• Paste the following command into Powershell and execute it:

get-appxpackage *Microsoft.ZuneVideo* | remove-appxpackage



Hope this information was helpful and do let us know if you need further assistance. We will be glad to assist.

 

Windows 10 Mail App can't type in body

Thanks for your suggestion... but none of this seems to work... In fact, it made things worse.

In first place, I searched "troubleshooting" but don't have the option Start or Windows Store App: please give me a link or a step by step guide to find this...

The Method... not only didn't fix anything, it uninstalled TV and Video App! (Nothing have to do with Mail app)...

 

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)
