Windows 10: "You'll need a new app to open this: ms-wpc"

When I try to open Google Chrome, I get an error message saying "You'll need a new app to open this ms-wpc"
I don't even know how to download whatever that is.

Thank you for any help!

You'll need a new app to open this ms-wpc, how do I fix this

Hi Christianna,

There are several reasons why the "You'll need a new app to open this ms-wpc" message appears on your PC. It can be due to a corrupted user profile or the store app is missing or broken. For us to better assist you, we'd like to request
for additional details. Please answer the following:

• Have you made any recent changes or installed updates prior to this issue?
• What build and version of Windows 10 are you using?
• Have you tried creating a new user profile to check if it will show the same behavior?
• Are you getting the pop-up message when opening or installing apps?

We look forward to your response.

 

Mail app will not open on 10041.


Hello Adam,

This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it. *Smile

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)

 

Store crashes in window 10 : you'll need a new app to open this: ms-windows-store

I just added my wife, Melissa, as a new user account and now the Microsoft Store app is not even listed. When I click on adding an app from your Edge homepage it still shows the window:

You'll need a new app to open this ms-windows-store

I have already typed in the powershell commands suggested and restarted and its still not working. What is the next step? I am using a Dell XPS All In One that started with WIndows 8 - upgraded to 8.1 and then upgraded to WIndows 10.

Thanks in advance, Jeff
