  1. "Select an App to Open 'UserName'" Shows Every Time I Log In


    Every time I login, the select an app dialog shows up. The title at the top of the window reads "Select an app to open 'Username'". This can be reproduced by running '%AppData%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup' in the run toolbar. Since this behaviour started happening, a number of programs no longer start with my computer including MS Teams and the Bing Wallpaper app. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    :)

  3. Selecting apps to open files while using Open with on Windows 10

    Hello Chris,



    We realize your requirement in this regard.



    Let me confirm that the apps or application that appears in the list of Open with depends on the selection and there usage. Sadly, we don't have any manual option for forcing this change that makes that app appears in the Open with list.



    Suggest you to try using the app for multiple time, when you make selection with the Open with to see if it automatically appears for the next time.

    Keep posted if you require further assistance.

    Thank you.

    Mail app will not open on 10041.

    Hello Adam,

    This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it. "Select an App to Open 'UserName'" Shows Every Time I Log In :)

    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)
