Windows 10: Newly launched apps open in small window mode.

If you guys don't fix this problem, I will never buy another MS product again. I am flippin' sick and tired of having multiple windows open - then try to launch an app - and I have to minimize ALL active program apps before I can get the launched app into a mode where I can hit the maximize button. This is a problem endemic with MS Windows 10. I've seen many threads. And several acknowledged refusals to fix.
Why don't you just fix it and make your user base happy? Can you be that dense?
If you knew how many times I was angry enough to cuss at MS - and wanted to throw the computer across the room you would not be able to sleep at night. At least that is true if anyone at MS even cares.
I will never buy another MS operating system and will switch to Linux, which while a bit unwieldy, IS less irritating to use on a regular basis.
How do you guys expect to stay in business when free software is superior to your pay-to-use software?
I don't expect an answer. I sort of suspect a bunch of computer nerds are going to read this and laugh while rubbing their hands together in villain fashion. That's how little I think of you.
FIX YOUR SOFTWARE SO IT IS EASIER TO USE. Especially stupid highly irritating bugs like this one.

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)
