The truth is that the new Windows 10 is becoming a complete success, it hasn't even been with us for 15 days and it has been very well received, with millions of users who have installed it. If it hasn't arrived yet, you may have to wait quite a while to receive it, but if Windows 7 or Windows 8 offers to upgrade, don't hesitate. Today we bring you some bad news: Windows 10 Store, Mail, and OneNote are down, at least for some users.
The problem seems to have to do with Microsoft servers, and gives us an error message when trying to access one of these services, indicating the code 0x8000FFFF Unfortunately, it's not clear what causes the crash, which specific users are experiencing it, or how to fix it.
Microsoft is working on fixing it
The bug was discovered over the weekend, and it seems that Microsoft is already looking for a solution, although it has not made any statements regarding this problem. In the official photos of Microsoft there are many complaints about it, which is logical, because the Windows 10 store and mail are two key components of the system, which are used daily.
Some users search for possible solutions to the error on their own, but so far, none have been found that work for everyone. Presumably, even so, in a short time Microsoft will correct the matter But we have already seen that a multitude of small bugs are emerging with Windows 10, so the Company engineers must be very busy.
How to avoid the problem
Some users have found a way around this problem by following a series of simple steps. It may not work for everyone, but this system is worth a try:
- Disconnect your PC from the Internet.
- Right-click the start menu and choose " Command Prompt (Admin), you must accept its execution.
- In the window enter these commands, one by one and in order: first net stop wuauserv, thenmove "c:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution" "c:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution.old" and finally net start wuauserv
- Restart your PC, and reconnect it to the Internet. Hopefully everything will work properly now.
So Windows 10 Store, Mail, and OneNote are down for certain users. We have not run into the problem, but it's clearly going to be annoying, so hopefully it gets fixed soon.
