Windows 10: Windows 10 Store App Alarms & Clock not opening

This problem existed in1803. I upgraded to 1909, and it still persists.

I uninstalled it, restarted, and reinstalled it from the store.


No joy.


I ran elevated sfc /scannow - no issues.


I ran the elevated Powershell command Get-AppXPackage *WindowsStore* -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"} I found from a 2018 post about a similar issue.


No joy.


I found the error in Event Viewer with Event ID 1000 - already did some so not I have to restart to continue

Windows Alarms & Clock app seems to update correctly in Windows Store but never really installs

Hi Matthew,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community, we appreciate your interest in Windows 10.

I understand the inconvenience you are facing with Alarm and Clock app, try the below and check if it helps.

I would like to inform that, you need to close the Windows Store and other apps before executing
the PowerShell command. Also, sign-out and sign-in before installing the apps from the store.
I suggest you to take this as a precaution before performing the troubleshooting steps.

Step 1: To uninstall Alarm and Clock app
follow the below steps.

• Press Windows key, type
  Windows PowerShell and select Run as administrator.
• Enter the command: “get-appxpackage *Microsoft.WindowsAlarms* | remove-appxpackage” (Without quotes) on the
  PowerShell and hit Enter.

This will uninstall the Alarm and Clock app and then you can reinstall the app from Windows Store. Before re-installing, I suggest you to perform
Step 2 and proceed.

Step 2: Run
WSReset.exe .

• Press Windows+R key to open
  Run box
• Enter wsreset.exe in the Run command and then click
  OK.
• Restart your computer and install the app.

Hope it helps. Kindly let us know if you need any further assistance with Windows. We will be glad to assist you.

 

Alarms and Clock app not working in Windows 10

Certain features of the Alarms and Clock app are not working in Windows 10.

The main reason I use this app is for the Timer, which currently is not working.

• I cannot create a new timer.
• I cannot remove the default timer that is there when the app is first run.
• I cannot edit the default timer

I have read the " Fix problems with apps from Microsoft Store" article and tried the following steps.

• Checking for updates.
• Resetting the app.
• Running the app troubleshooter

None of this has fixed the issue I am facing. The Alarm function of this app is also showing the exact same issues.

Please advise.
