My PC shutdown abnormally. The mail app shows no accounts now. When trying to add an email account, it just sits and spins and does nothing.

Mail app says account is synced, but account not showing up in app


When I first installed Windows 10, I added two Gmail accounts to the mail app and everything worked fine. Suddenly, neither account is showing up in the app, yet when I try to re-add the account, it says it already exists. Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
