  1. Trying to fix the Phone app + a few other apps too


    Hey there!



    So, i recently had an issue with my computer, so I did the only thing I could do, and that was to use an old restore point I made

    Saddly, that did not work out very well, because my computer was "Loading the Restore Point" for 13 Hours, So I powered off my computer, and I powered it back on, I was able to fix most of the issues that occurred when i abruptly stopped the restore point, but there is one issue that i still have...

    I have a few apps that wont work at all!
    the one I mostly used was the Your Phone app, and that was the 1 app I could just not fix...

    I have Restarted the app
    I Repaired the app
    I used the command prompt to uninstall the app, and I reinstalled it

    I booted into safe mode to delete the program files for the Your Phone app

    and none of these have helped out, everytime I try to boot up the app, it opens, does nothing for 2 seconds, then closes, and it unpins itself from the Taskbar, and the Start

    I have tried to delete the Your Phone folders from the "WindowsApps" folder in "Program Files"
    Full path C:/Program Files/WindowsApps/Microsoft.YourPhone.[Random Letters and Numbers]
    But I do not have the permissions, even though I own my computer, I need permission from [laptop name]-I0
    I logged into the hidden Administrator account and tried to delete the files, but yet, still, I cannot delete the dang folders
    Is there any way that I can completely uninstall the app, so I can reinstall it with all its files, and fully functional?



    This is a Windows 10 computer and I get no error code when the app closes, I don't wanna try anything that can risk any of my important files getting deleted

    :)

    I think I'll put a list of people's favourite apps in the OP, starting with my own until I get some suggestions, but you can take a look at the Windows Phone app store at the top apps to see what's popular http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store

    No, it's a native app, incredibly fast on even the slowest phones. The forum view is an embedded web page.

    is the mobile app just an embedded version of the website shrunk to fit a phone/tablet?
