  1. Windows is opening a browser tab when opening apps


    My system is opening https://www.microsoft365.com/?from=OfficeKey in chrome or whatever is set as standard browser if im not logged into mircosoftand https://www.microsoft365.com if im logged in on the website. This can even happen multiple times in a working session.Sometimes im working with my PC and after a while i open my browser that was running in the background and i got 10 https://www.microsoft365.com tabs open.Also happens when no browser is open.I can reproduce it already with certain software. Fastest way to reproduce it is opening a game from steam or any other App

    :)

    Mail app will not open on 10041.

    Hello Adam,

    This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it. Windows is opening a browser tab when opening apps :)

    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 is opening a browser tab when opening apps

    Edge browser restore previous pages then suddenly opens new tab

    Well I have the same situation only I get a new tab with a Restore Previous Pages option pop up in the top right hand corner if I click this it does restore those but leaves me with two Outlook (my start page) open so I shall try what you suggest. Edit: have just checked mine and it is switched off so perhaps you got lucky.
