Windows 10: Windows 10 - Mail - Virus Problem.

Good morning, To whom it may concern.When I started to use this PC, it was asked that I log in to my Outlook/Hotmail, which is really useful and cool to have direct access to my Mail.However, for 2 times now, I have received an E-Mail which has malware/spyware. I do not even open Mail that I do not recognize, as a matter of fact I only open mail that I know 100% it's not coming from someone I do not know. After checking my folders, I found out that some attachments are automatically download without my consent.I guess my questions are: Is this a fact? Is there a way to prevent this?

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)

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
