Calendar app stuck on Creating account with Gmail

No, there is no email listed on Email and Accounts. (And I get the same problem when I try to add my gmail adress (or another), it connect to gmail, then ask for permission, then the windows popup "creating account" get stuck).

ps: since I use the same email to connect with edge (the one show on the screenshot above in "account used by other apps"), I removed it but it did not solve the issue.

No it isn't (it's not that easy ;-) ). Cf my last answer.

Thank you guys for your perseverance!




I guess the gmail account hasn't been completely deleted, windows or the app messed up somewhere.

 

Calendar app stuck on Creating account with Gmail

In brief: it doesn't work, and it (most probably) has nothing to do with gmail authentification since you first need to successfully login to your gmail account to get to the "creating account" final step.


In detail:
I tried allowing less secure apps, It did not work.

Then I tried to login an app password, it did not work, but for another reason:

For that I did:
- activate on mail the 2 step verification sign in.
- I created an app psw to provide access for calendar on my computer windows 10
- I tried again to connect using my gmail email, and the password provided for the "app password", but gmail did not recognized password. But that seems to be another problem not related since when I tried again with my (normal) gmail password, it send me a verification sms, and when it was validated, it went to the "creating account".

 

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)
