Windows 10: No options in Settings in Whiteboard

I don't seem to have any additional options for settings in Whiteboard. I watched a video that showed options like these:I'm baffled.

:)

 

My whiteboards disappeared.

Hello PaigeLuben

Im Juliet and Im happy to help you

If you're referring to the whiteboard application that comes pre-installed with Windows 11, and it seems to have disappeared from your computer, you can try the following steps to troubleshoot the issue:

1. Search for the whiteboard app:

Click on the Start button and type "Whiteboard" in the search bar. Check if the app appears in the search results. If it does, click on it to open the application.

2. Check the app list:

Right-click on the Start button and select "Apps and Features" from the menu. Scroll through the list of installed apps and see if the whiteboard app is listed. If it is, click on it and see if there is an option to launch or reinstall the app.

3. Windows Store:

Open the Microsoft Store app on your Windows 11 computer. Search for "Whiteboard" in the store's search bar. If the whiteboard app is available in the store, you should be able to install or update it from there.

4. Reset or reinstall the app:

If none of the above steps work, you can try resetting or reinstalling the whiteboard app. Open Settings, go to Apps > Apps & features, find the whiteboard app in the list, and click on it. From there, you may find options to reset or uninstall the app. Afterward, you can try reinstalling it from the Microsoft Store.

I hope this helps Let me know what happens.

 

Authoring Canvas Text Alignment and Exported Image from Whiteboard doesnt match up

Hi

Welcome to Microsoft community.

This issue may occur due to a discrepancy in the export settings or a bug in the whiteboard software. To address this problem, you can try the following steps:

1. Check the export settings: Make sure that the export settings for the whiteboard image are configured to maintain the original text alignment. Some software may have specific options for text alignment during export.
   
2. Update the software: If the issue persists, check for any available updates for the whiteboard software.
   

Please feel free to let me know if you have any further updates, thanks.

Hi AbulaisShomrat,



Thank you for querying in this forum.



From your description, it seems that you have installed Microsoft Whiteboard, but you cannot open it successfully.



If my understanding is right, for the situation you encountered, we do understand the inconvenience caused and apologize for it. And we have tested it on our side and we cannot reproduce the same situation as yours.

And given this situation, we’d give you some suggestions below and hope that will help you:

1. You can go to Windows Settings > Apps > Microsoft Whiteboard > Advanced > click Repair and Reset to check if it will help.
   
2. You can also refer to this article: How to perform a clean boot in Windows to reboot your computer in clean boot to check if the same problem will occur. You can determine whether a background program is interfering with your game or program.
   

At the same time, to better understand your situation, could you provide the information below?

1. May I know if you are using Microsoft 365 business account or Microsoft 365 personal account?
   
2. Could you provide the version of Microsoft Whiteboard? You can go to Windows Settings > Apps > Microsoft Whiteboard > Advanced and provide the screenshot of it.
   
3. May I know if you downloaded Microsoft Whiteboard from Microsoft Store?
   

Your understanding and patience will be highly appreciated. I hope that you are keeping safe and well!
