Windows 10: Microsoft is finally bringing stylus support to the Mail app in Windows 10

Microsoft is today rolling out a new update for Windows 10’s Mail app for the Windows Insiders in the Fast Ring with major improvements. The update is bringing new inking capabilities that’ll let you write an email with a stylus.

Microsoft appears to be A/B testing the feature and it’ll be rolled out to everyone in the coming weeks.

If the reports are believed to be true, Microsoft is actually preparing the Outlook Mail app for the long rumoured Andromeda mobile device. Microsoft’s Andromeda is a dual-screen device with full Windows 10 operating system, and it’ll have support for Windows Ink.

As Microsoft is testing the feature with select users, it won’t show up on your device just yet. But in case you’re part of the A/B testing group, you can find the new inking capabilities by composing a new email and clicking on the new draw option.

It also allows you to select different pen types. Microsoft has also included a highlighter and an eraser. Furthermore, you can press on the (+) icon for more drawings and inkings in the emails.

Mail app will not open on 10041.


Hello Adam,

This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it. *Smile

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!

• Sign out of outlook.com and then open the Windows 10 Mail App.
• Delete the outlook.com account from the Windows 10 Mail App.
• Add the outlook.com account back in.
• The deleted suggested contacts are now gone!
