    Problem with Facebook app on Windows 10


    Installation of Facebook app was interrupted by accident. It now lets me log in (Facebook notices the login action) but doesn't display my info. I uninstalled and reinstalled it, reregistered, sfc /scannow, but nothing helps.

    The app works properly on another account on this PC.

    I presume some info remains after uninstall (in my user profile, cache, database, registry ???) Does anyone kown a way to completely uninstall?

    :)

  2. Windows 10 Problem

    After I updated Windows 10 today as I was instructed, I can no longer get on the internet. My wifi no longer shows up to click on it. It was working fine until I allowed the install. I have tried restarting the HP Spectre x 369 laptop and the router,
    but this has not helped. (I am using a borrowed Apple computer to search for a solution.) I need help to get back online. Can anyone help or tell me who I might contact for help?

  3. Facebook app crashing

    My Facebook App is opening and closing automatically in 10 seconds in Windows 10

    The problem lies with the Windows App and started today after I installed the Facebook update.

    I have not got the App to work but found that I could login to my Facebook Homepage with no problem through the facebook.com website and not using the App at all.

    I hope that somebody at Microsoft will sort out what appears to be a recurring problem with this App over many years and different devices.

    Why not use Facebook's main website?

    Problem with Facebook app on Windows 10

    I noticed that the Facebook databases which should be located at: C:\Users\<PROFILENAME>\AppData\Local\Packages\Facebook.Facebook_8xx8rvfyw5nnt\LocalState\<FACEBOOK ID>\DB
    are actually present in the account with the working version of the app but are missing in the defective account.

    Still haven't found why this happens!

  8. Quite. Apps like this are meant for phones, even crazy to use on tablets.

    I'm having problems with the Facebook app. Being busy debugging for more than a week, I ran into the following.
    I have 2 accounts on this PC, one where the FB app works well, the other not.

    The first account shows lots of web credentials, the second one very few. Any idea what could be wrong with the credential management in the second case? And how to repair this?

    Often a simple reinstall of the app fixes it. Or a new account lol!
