  1. UWP apps crash explorer after update


    i recently updated my windows 11 machine to the latest 22h2 version but now whenever i try to open any uwp app e.g. settings, msstore, calculator, samsung flow, videos, photos etc.. explorer crashes and restarts. after it crashes a couple of times a window pops up with the following message: explorer.exe that's the titlebar title File system error -2147219194. is there a way to uninstall the latest update outside the settings app since, well, it won't open?if logs are actually needed i can provide them

  2. Error 0x2efd in XMLHttpRequests crashes Hosted Web UWP App

    Hi,

    i also posted this question in the developer forums, cause it is more appropriate there:

    [UWP][HTML]Error 0x2efd in XMLHttpRequests crashes Hosted Web UWP App

    But to give you the asked infos:

    • It is a self developed Hosted WebApp
    • The Windows is updated, Version in previous post
    • The issue started when i first tested the App offline
    • The troubleshooting steps are all described in my post
    • No Screenshot, cause the app crashes silently, when debugging the Exception comes from the WWAHost
    Greetings

    Windows uwp apps start crashing after update to 1809

    So, day after release, my laptop showed up update for version 1809. I updated, and went everything smooth. After update, i thought of updating windows apps later next day, and on next day, BAM!

    Windows store crashed. I thought must be temporary. Then i opened a music file to play song. An error showed, app couldn't be started. Like what? Then noticed that bunch of uwp apps started to behave like this (except edge, solitarie, settings and cortana).

    It was so frustrating, that i reverted back to 1803. I opened store for cross check. It loaded. I was relieved. And kept it to update all apps.

    Here comes most annoying and frustrated part. I dont know how but it started to behave like after update! I tried wsreset, reset from apps page, did powershell ****, even removed the store only to find that i cannot install it again. Not to mention all other
    apps were also behaving like this. So my last option was to upgrade the os inside os. Fortunately i have 1803 iso. And to no relief, all the nonworking uwp apps are now missing. Except the ones i mentioned like cortana. So my laptop is without calender, calculator.
    The last step should repair it right?

    I am extremely frustrated because none troubleshooting steps work, even creating new user didnt saved

    I was fortunate that my personal data was not deleted. But classic apps releived me for sake of operability. This proves uwp is biggest failure of microsoft. When someone uninstalls something, he should be able to install it the way he uninstalled! Do you
    even understand that?

    Lesson learned, never update the os during launch, update after one month.
