    Universal Apps won't open


    Since an update yesterday my universal apps (including Photos) won't open. I get the message 'Photos can't be opened using the Built in Administrator Account. Sign in with a different account and try again.' Same message with other apps. I don't have the built in administrator account active and only have one account on this laptop - mine - which has administrator rights.
    When I restarted my laptop after the update I did notice a small message about settings but it flashed on and off screen so fast I don't really know what it meant but I suspect there was a change made that has caused this problem. I have tried a system restore using several restore points but they failed. I would be very grateful if someone has an answer to this - preferably step by step as I'm not very tech savvy! Thanks. Kind regards .

    Worried this to death - finally. I had turned off UAC using a 3rd party tweaker and included the administrator account. Apparently Universal Apps don't run if you do that.

    How to use Office Universal Apps

    Hello, all.

    I just found out a lot about Universal Apps for Microsoft Office using Windows 10. But I don't know how to start using them. Can someone please give me a step-by-step rundown on how to get started and to successfully use Universal Apps for Office? Thank
    you.

    SOLVED: Laptop Touchpad fully functional, but not in Universal apps


    OK - sorted it finally :
    • in step one/two above you delete the existing Synaptics drivers then have to reboot
    • unfortunately when the PC restarts it installs some generic touchpad drivers which have the basic functionality
    • So although step4 (run setup) appears to work, it hasn't actually done anything as the generic drivers are already there
    So what you have to do is this...

    • In device manager, select the mouse device and click update drivers.
    • Then select Browse My Computer > Let me pick from a list > Have disk button, and select the folder with the new Synaptics drivers (I'm running 32-bit windows so selected ..\WinWDF\x86).
    • The green progress bar shows the drivers are loading, then when it's all done you now have the new functionality installed - RESULT!!!
