    Not being able to run as administrator any app


    Everthing started after a very painful day using my laptop. i kept restarting it until the point where the screen blured. After a few minutes i got the error saying the extended atributes are inconsistent from skype. After that i gone to task manager and disabled skype startup. I tryed to go to command prompt and run sfc /scannow but it didnt allow me because i wasnt administrator. When i tryed to run as administrator, the same error accured but now it said "File system error -1073741818" . After this i tryed to go to recovery mode

    :)

    Mail app will not open on 10041.

    Hello Adam,

    This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it. Not being able to run as administrator any app :)

    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)

  3. Problem with Apps that Running as Administrator

    Hi,

    Running programs as an administrator can be set checking the properties of the app it self. For us to isolate the issue, we would like to ask these questions:

    • Have you made any changes to your computer prior to this issue?
    • What is the exact error message are you getting? It is better if you could provide to us a screenshot.
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    We look forward for your response.
