Dane Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 So the windows 10 calculator doesn't open anymore.non-insider builds, just doesn't open anymore. I did this:http://www.thewindowsclub.com/re-register-windows-store-apps and it didn't help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dot Matrix Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Have you tried to uninstall the app and reinstall from the store? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+virtorio MVC Posted October 21, 2015 MVC Share Posted October 21, 2015 That's probably your best bet. You can remove it by running the following command from an elevated PowerShell prompt: Get-AppxPackage *windowscalculator* | Remove-AppxPackage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pork Chopper Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Based on the error message it looks like you pasted in the wrong command or something funky happened to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dane Posted October 21, 2015 Author Share Posted October 21, 2015 (edited) Based on the error message it looks like you pasted in the wrong command or something funky happened to it. I copied and pasted it from here. Edit:It uninstalled it. I went to the app store, it said free. It downloaded, i clicked opened and nothing.

Jim K Global Moderator Posted October 21, 2015 Global Moderator Share Posted October 21, 2015 Did you try: Get-AppxPackage *windowscalculator* | Add-AppxPackage If none of that works ... just download the w32 version. Beats worrying if the "Modern" Application decides to open or not...and the tremendous headache trying to get them to work when it does fail. http://winaero.com/download.php?view.1795 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
