Reinstalling Windows 10 with a laptop bought second-hand

You should be fine doing a Clean Install for yourself, if desired. Would suggest 2 things first.

1. Get a copy of your keys. Check here for a freebie app that will display your keys, and make note of them. They should already be digitally activated, but to be safe, get them first.

2. Make a full system image backup before Clean Install if you haven't already. Macrium Reflect Free is highly recommended by many on Tenforums.

Then proceed with your clean install.

Mail app will not open on 10041.

Hello Adam,

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

In this Windows 10 build 10041, the Mail, Calendar, and People apps may be broken due to a licensing issue with the Store Beta. To get these apps working again, you need to follow these steps:

• Open powershell as administrator
• Run the command Get-appxprovisionedpackage –online | where-object {$_.packagename –like “*windowscommunicationsapps*”} | remove-appxprovisionedpackage –online
• Re-install Mail, People and Calendar from the Store (green tile)
