Windows 10: Microsoft Mail running very , very slow

Hi The mail on my pc has suddenly started to run very slowly and takes forever to load messages and saved messages.


I have reset the app and checked the settings to allow access but to no avail.


Has anyone got a quick fix.

I am using windows 10

:)

 

Mail app will not open on 10041.


Hello Adam,

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

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)

Hello AnneGuelker,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

I would suggest you with few simple troubleshooting steps. Kindly follow the below.

1. May I know how many accounts are configured in the Mail App?
   

Method 1: Try to run the PowerShell command and check if it helps.

• Open the Task manager (Press
  CTRL+Shift+ESC).
  
• Click File > Run New Task.
  
• Make sure you have a check mark beside “Create this task with administrative privileges”.
  
• Type PowerShell.
  
• Type the following in the PowerShell prompt:
  

$manifest = (Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.WindowsStore).InstallLocation + '\AppxManifest.xml’; Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $manifest

• Close the PowerShell window
  
• Reboot the computer.
  

-> Also check the junk mail to see if there are any emails.

Hope it helps.
