Windows 10: Windows 10 - Mail: how do you do these simple things to work more efficiently?

Here are some very frustrating issues wit this client:


1. When i search for an email, if i click the back button, my search is gone and i have to repeat. So if 100 emails are returned by the search, on a bad day, i might have to repeat the search 100 times if what I'm looking for is in the 100th email.


2. I often work with multiple emails at a time - where i have one open in a window while i compose another email in a new window. To do this in Mail, i have to first open each email, which by default opens within the mail client window, click a button to pop it out into a new window..then repeat the process for each email i want in a separate window. Why isn't there an option to open emails in a new window?


3a. I can not drag one email into a newly composed email.

3b. I can drag emails to Windows Task
3c. I cannot drag emails to my desktop or any other apps


4. Emails all open by default in the same window - but calendar, people/contacts, and tasks open in different popup windows. Why can't these simply open in the same window or as panes?

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)
