  1. Lost All My Apps


    I was on the phone with a Microsoft tech to help me get upgraded to Windows 10. I have a Lenovo Y70-70 laptop that came with many apps. After getting Windows 10 installed. I found that all my pre installed apps were gone. I'm wondering if I do a "system recovery" if that would get back those missing apps?

    :)

    Lost default photo viewer after profile rebuild


    Thanks Brink. I've tried those steps before i started searching Google. After the profile rebuild i don't have the Photo app listed to choose to make it default in either the system settings for default apps or the Open With option.

    I can't even find it doing a search. Seems to have been removed somehow with the profile rebuild, which doesn't make sense.

    Might be helpful to list what i've done Lost All My Apps :) I've done the open with check, the choose default program in the system menu, tried that in device manager default programs also. I've checked the programs and features Turn windows features on/off and it's not listed there (never thought it was but that was a suggestion), searched the MS Store, it's not listed there either.

    I don't like playing in the registry unless i have defined steps and haven't found anything for this yet, just the Win7 version like in my OP.

    Mail app will not open on 10041.


    Hello Adam,

    This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it. Lost All My Apps :)

    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)

    Lost All My Apps

    lost points?

    Hi Susan,

    It seems that the issue is with the Window Store app cache. We suggest that you clear Store cache by following these steps:

    • Right-click the Start button and choose Run.
    • In the Run window, type in wsreset.exe and click OK.

      An empty command prompt window will open up.
    • When the reset is complete, this window will close and the Store window will open.

    Let us know how it goes after performing the suggested troubleshooting steps.
