Windows 10: microsoft casual games

I am getting tired of six different Microsoft Casual Games either getting unreasonably slow, freezing, or just turning off. I have tried resetting them. I restart and within 30 minutes it happens again. I have Windows 10. I performed the troubleshooting for Windows Store Apps and it didn't fix the crash problem I got a message about database corruption. I ran the troubleshoot for Update and told it to fix it. I updated everything. It would come back telling me problems were fixed. The data file was corrupt. What I don't understand is that right after I restart the machine, just out of curiosity I did it again. It said the same problem. How can that be if it was just fixed 5 minutes ago? It is a Microsoft Game from the Microsoft Store. Windows Defender scanned and found no viruses. It is Microsoft Minesweeper, Mahjong, Ultimate Word Games, and Taptiles. All are Microsoft programs and all are doing the same thing. After this last time, Sudoku will start but when I choose the daily challenge, it takes a long time then just disappears. It shuts off on its own. I used to have an app from the support that would troubleshoot just a certain app. When I tried in settings, the game wasn't listed. I tried to enter the path exactly like it is written but it says not valid. I tried to copy the location directly from the PC but was told immediately that I don't have permission to go to those files. It is my computer and I am the administrator. This is ridiculous. At first, it was everything that gets slow. Finally, I uninstalled McAfee and miraculously everything was running better than ever. Is Windows Defender doing something as well to slow everything? Even Settings is getting too slow. The laptop is brand new. Windows 10. This is unacceptable. Please help. I have sent snips of the messages I get from troubleshoot to the hub but haven't received any answers. Bill Gates, what is up? I thought I used to have a tool to troubleshoot a specific app but can't find it in support. Microsoft is better than this. Or it used to be.

Casual Games

Hi Desmond,

Thank you for posting the query on Microsoft Community.

Sorry to know that you are unable to access games.

When you say casual games, what games are you referring to?

For Store issue:

Try to run the troubleshooter for Windows apps and check:

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/run-the-troubleshooter-for-windows-apps

I would suggest you to follow the steps:

• Open the Task manager. Here’s a tip: Press CTRL+Shift+ESC.
  
• Click File > Run New Task.
• Make sure you have a check mark beside “Create this task with administrative privileges”.
  
• Type CMD.
• Type the following 4 commands at the CMD prompt:
  
  dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
  
  sfc /scannow
  
  powershell
  
  Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers |Where-Object {$_.InstallLocation -like "*SystemApps*"} | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
  
• Close the CMD window.
• Check to see if the issue is resolved. If not, restart the PC.

Hope this helps in resolving the issue. If the issue persists, do get back to us. We will be happy to assist you.
