You can perform the following steps to reinstall all the built-in apps in Windows OS to resolve these issues.
- Search for "PowerShell" in the search box on the taskbar and select Run as administrator.
- Enter the Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers| Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"} command in the window, and then press the Enter key.
- Wait until the command execution is complete. After the command is executed, the built-in apps in the Windows OS are restored to the initial state. Generally, the apps can work properly after the command is executed. If not, restart your computer.
