Windows 10: Many microsoft apps not working

Many of the Microsoft apps such as sticky notes, Microsoft to-do, photos, camera etc not working. As soon as I open them, they close within 1 second. I have some important information stored in my sticky notes and they are very helpful to me. Can anybody please help?

• Click on “View All” on top left pane.

Also, I suggest you to check if there are any updates available for the apps in Windows Store.

If the issue still persists, suggest you to create another user account and check for status.
