    Microsoft launcher updated broke my phone.


    Microsoft launcher updated & broke my phone. Samsung j5. Microsoft support are all about pc or laptop, they don't care about the destroyed phones the latest update has caused. Customer support just promise to get in touch then dont bother but Microsoft launcher seems to have stopped my phone receiving emails!

    Is this is the worst shambles since windows10?

    Microsoft are worse than no help.

    How can I revert to previous Microsoft launcher or uninstall it completely?

    Any hints?

    :)

    Hi AustinNeely\,

    Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Community. May we ask if what troubleshooting you have tried? We highly suggest you to try the steps below.

    • Restart your phone.
    • If the issue persists after restarting your phone, it only means that the default launcher is needed for any other launchers to work properly. Re-installing the default launcher should resolve the issue.

    Once your Android phone is back on its default settings, re-install the Microsoft Launcher and your other apps.

    Note: You can easily restore your Microsoft Launcher settings if you have performed a back up. To back up your Microsoft Launcher settings, please do the following:

    1. Launch the Microsoft Launcher settings. (Tap and hold your phone's home screen and tap on the
      Launcher Settings.)
    2. Tap Back up & Restore.
    3. Tap Back up Microsoft Launcher option.
    4. Confirm that the Back up to cloud storage option is selected.
    5. Tap the Back up button.
    6. Check the settings that you want to back up.
    7. Tap the Back up now button.

    You may restore your Microsoft Launcher back up after re-installing it.

    If you can no longer re-install your phone's default launcher, please get in touch with its manufacturer for assistance on how you can reset it to its factory settings.

    Kind Regards,

    Rom G.
