    Unwanted App - where is it?

    If it's a UWP app (Store app) then you can try here:

    i have an unwanted app. what do i do 305174d1604740814t-unwanted-app-where-1.png


    whilst everything installed is listed here:

    i have an unwanted app. what do i do 305175d1604740884t-unwanted-app-where-1.png


    If that means you were using a browser, there may be a download record.

    i have an unwanted app. what do i do

    Mail app will not open on 10041.

    Hello Adam,

    This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it. i have an unwanted app. what do i do :)

    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)
