I'm having a problem when i open steam games or apps or what ever , it point's to my browser instead of opening my game or app.


I tried system restore , i tried sfc command , tried virus scan , tried resetting my apps nothing seems to fix my problem , is there some thing I'm not doing right?

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)

Hi Omar,

Issues launching the game may be caused by several reasons. The components of the game might be corrupted or you need to install new updates for the game itself.

To resolve your concern, we suggest that you restart your computer to normal startup to disable unnecessary apps running in the background of your computer while you are using it. Kindly follow the steps below:

• Press Windows + R on the keyboard.
• Type msconfig, and then click OK.
• On the General tab, click the Normal Startup, and then click OK.
• When you are prompted to restart the computer, click Restart.

If you are still experiencing the same issue, check for new updates on Windows Store by following the steps on this

link. download and install the updates, and then launch the game again.
