  1. Win 10 Mail Issues


    Tried to do this once before but had a similar time during the process. New install of Win 10 on a New SSD drive (good time for a complete refresh. Also added more memory to this aging laptop.
    Win 10 is up to date and I have a fully operational Win 10 Desktop to refer to.
    Issue 1: Setup for MAIL ran fine to a point; setup my gmail account including contacts and folders. Trouble with folders is that they only open up for viewing using the "more" button. I want all these folders to show up on the left panel an opening the program. Have to add another account but will wait until I figure this out. With help.

    Issue 2; I have incoming mail showing up in my Outlook 2019 inbox on Desktop PC but not in Mail on laptop; nothing coming in. All the settings are still set to original install; I have not been messing with what I don't know about.

    Originally was happily motoring along with Windows Live Mail ( did it all for me ); tried others like Mozilla and Mailbird but wasn't happy.

    Help please!!

    :)

    Mail app will not open on 10041.

    Hello Adam,

    This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it. Win 10 Mail Issues :)

    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)

    Replacing Windows Mail in Win-10 with one from Win-Vista.


    Clayton, yes you can use your own files, as well realize the files from the tutorial attachments are the exact same thing already coming from Windows Vista - it's all the same.

    The tutorial instructions how to do it in every detail are posted Here

    Please for your own sake, just be sure you understand the limitations of using the old Vista WinMail client out of it's native environment inside of Windows7/8/10 by reading through the disclaimer, and the Bug List that's linked on the page there, and then decide if you want to do it and if it's right for you.
    Feel free to post your questions over there too.

    win 10 mail crashes

    These procedures can be used to fix issues with These win 10 apps. Mail, Calendar, Cortana, Start menu, and Settings. It probably will work for others but I have only tested it with these.

    Solution 1: Re-register this App:
    • Run Windows PowerShell as Administrator.
    • Type Get-AppxPackage, press Enter.
    • From the output list, find the Mail App and remember the InstallLocation.
    • Type this command: Get-AppXPackage | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\microsoft.windowscommunicationsapps_17.6120.42011.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\AppxManifest.xml"}
    • It would run as below:

    Solution 2: If re-registering the App does not resolve your issue, Try reinstalling the App.

    Step 1: Uninstall it completely
    • Run Windows PowerShell as Administrator.
    • Type Get-AppxPackage, press Enter.
    • From the output list, find Mail App package and remember its PackageFullName as below:
    • And then type the following command: Remove-Appxpackage –Package microsoft.windowscommunicationsapps_17.6120.42011.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe
    Note: After running this command in Windows 10, the Mail icon still appear in the App list and Start menu. However, you cannot click to launch it. Just ignore and continue next step.

    Step 2: Reinstall the App from Windows Store
