Mail app will not open on 10041.

Hello Adam,

This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it.

• Open powershell as administrator

• Re-install Mail, People and Calendar from the Store (green tile)

Hello Michael. This is Emily.

Can you try a few things below to see if we can get Mail app to install again?

Option 1: Run the MS Store troubleshooter. Go to Settings > Update & Security > Troubleshoot, and then from the list select Windows Store apps > Run the troubleshooter.

Option 2: Go to Settings > Apps, from the list of installed apps, find Mail & Calendar, click on the three dots and go to Advanced Options. On the next page, scroll down and choose the Reset button.

Option 3: Relink your MS account and your device. Go to Settings > Accounts > Your info

Click on Sign in as local user instead. follow the steps and finish the rest

Restart the computer (do not skip)

Go to Settings > Accounts > Your info

Click on Sign in with Microsoft account instead. follow the steps and finish the rest

Restart the computer.(do not skip)

Hopefully one of these clears the issue. If not, let me know and we will figure out what to do next.
