    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

    Windows mail app opens for me but not my wife on the same computer?

    Hi Max,

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

    As Mail and Calendar app are not accessible for your wife account, I suggest you to log-in with the wife account and try the below steps.

    Method 1: I suggest you to run the
    Windows Store Apps troubleshooter.

    Windows Store Apps Troubleshooter,
    troubleshoots problems that may prevent Windows Store Apps from working correctly.

    Follow the below steps:


    • Press Windows
      key, type troubleshooting and select Troubleshooting.

    • Select View all on the top left corner.

    • Click on Windows Store Apps.

    • Select “Advance” and click on “Run as Administrator”.

    • Click “Next” and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the troubleshooting process.

      If the issue persists then follow the below method.

    If the issue still persist then try the below,

    Method 2:

    You may uninstall the apps which came inbuilt with Windows 10 using Windows PowerShell and reinstall using Windows store. Follow the below steps.


    • Press Windows
      key, type Windows PowerShell in the search bar.

    • Right click on the Windows PowerShell and select Run as administrator.

    • Enter the below command to reinstall the Mail and Calendar app.

    • get-appxpackage *microsoft.windowscommunicationsapps* | remove-appxpackage
