The Windows Calculator is pissing me off


Why do you keep updating it?

Window's 10 Calculator won't launch

Hi Dan,

There could be a number of factors as to why you are having issues launching the Calculator app on Windows 10. This could be caused by a software conflict or due to the application itself.

You may consider resetting the Calculator app. To do this, refer to the steps below:

• Go to Settings > Apps > Apps & feature.
  
• Click the Calculator app from the list and then choose Advanced options.
  
• Click Reset.

If the issue persists, I suggest that you create a new user account. This is for us to check if the issue is due to a corrupted user profile. To do this, select the Start button, then select
Settings > Accounts > Family & other people > Add someone else to this PC.

Let us know how it goes and we'll assist you further if needed.

Hi,

Some of the reasons why the calculator app will not work properly are: the program encountered a corrupted system files, virus and malware, and another application is conflicting with it.

We suggest uninstalling and reinstalling the calculator. In doing so, you will have a fresh copy of the application which will eliminate the issue. Here are the steps:

• Right-click on the Start menu.
• Choose Command Prompt (Admin).
• Allow the application to make changes, Type in Powershell then, click
  Enter.
• Type in Get-AppxPackage *windowscalculator* | Remove-AppxPackage then, click
  Enter.
• Type in Get-AppxPackage *windowscalculator* | Add-AppxPackage then, click
  Enter.
• Restart the computer after the process and try accessing the menu of the calculator.

Don't hesitate to provide your feedback.
