    Many windows apps can't open


    My windows app can't be opened, such as calculator, photos, maps and get help. Like the photos when try to open will show this app didn't start.
    I already follow any instruction on internet, such as delete and reinstall again, do DISM, clear registry, reset the App, reset the WSStore, but still doesn't work

    I already read many of instruction from this forum, and many of them the problem never be resolved, so please Microsoft do something.

    :)

    Mail app will not open on 10041.


    Hello Adam,

    This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it. Many windows apps can't open :)

    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)

    Mail app will not open on 10041.


    Hey Shawn,
    I did that to no avail, then I ran WSReset.exe; now I'm good on all 3, Mail, Calendar and People! *Confused
    Go figure!
