Windows 10: Windows 10 Mail app: Can not send mail or verify account

I keep getting a message asking me to sign-in and verify my Outlook account when trying to send email using the Windows desktop Mail app.

This is extremely bothersome for me because I am blind and it’s difficult trying to complete the audio or sighted challenge.


What’s even more frustrating is that there is no way for me to verify the code using a cell phone. Even if I had a cell phone (which I don’t) there would be no way for me to read the text message.


There is no alternative provided. So much for accessibility!

Windows Mail

Is it possible to set up more than one email account when using Windows Mail? I hate Thunderbird because I could never get more than one email account set up and be able to send mail from both accounts. The outgoing servers kept on getting mixed up.

Thanks in advance.

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)
