Windows 10: Windows Store apps - issues opening

Hi all,I have had a significant difficulty resolving an issue with Photos, installed from the store. The affected user is on Windows 11 23H2. He cannot open Photos. Other users on W11 23H2 can open this program. I have uninstalled recent updates, reset and/or terminated the app, installed new updates, and looked at solutions on other forum posts. Does anyone know a sure-fire way to get this program to open?Regards,Mark Goodwin

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)

Hey Shawn,
