Windows 10: MS Calc - wrong answer?

Hello,


I can't figure it out.

this is clearly a wrong answer but i don't understand why am I getting it. other calculators agree that the answer should be about 0.7017

calc.exe no longer starts

Hi Vijay_Verma,

Unfortunately, the steps you proposed have proved to be unsuccessful.

Although the calc app cannot be uninstalled using the Apps & features because the Uninstall button is grayed (which is quite strange), the command you suggested in step 2A did the trick.

Then I tried to reinstall the app from the MS Store and to my surprise, I was informed: “Couldn’t install. We’ll retry shortly”. After this, I reinstalled the app using step B you suggested, but to no avail. The calc app is still useless.

Thank you for your help.

 

Windows calc stopped working

Hello,

Have you made any changes to your computer prior to this issue?

Actually I don't know when calc has been broken. But no, I didn't do any significant changes since it worked.

Are you getting any error message?

No, just that empty window.

Which windows build have you installed on your computer?10.0.10586

I tried clean boot as you suggested, but calc still doesn't work.

sfc /scannow didn't find any find any integrity violations.

I addition to this I see that Photos app and some other metro apps don't work as well. And they all have "empty" icons in start menu.

Any other suggestions?

Thank you for your help!

 

Search not returning majority of apps such as "calc"

After some failed Windows Updates and a messy reboot resulted in numerous issues with my setup, I was forced to run the "Reset your PC" option from my Windows 10 install media. After this I have had a number of issues, one of which is that now it seems that
the search functionality in the start menu is not working as intended.

The search is able to find some installd programs, such as Steam and Camtasia. However, it does not seem able to find any of the pre-installed applications, for example: "calc".

When I type in "calc" in the search field the search only suggests that I could "search my stuff" for a file called "calc" and eventually finds a number of related image files, but not the actual calculator application. If I add in the ".exe" to the end,
then Windows does manage to find calc.exe.

So far I have tried scripts for reinstalling all default apps, reinstalling cortana, repairing the start menu and turning the windows search -service on and off, but to no avail. What other steps could I take to try and restore full search functionality
to my Windows or should I be looking into a full OS reinstall at this point?
