    Guys, I have to share this in case anyone else has the same problem I had.

    On one machine LastPass and AdBlock Plus both stopped working in Edge and after trying to reset them, then tried the Windows Store Trouble Shooter, all without success I uninstalled them. Well, I found I couldn't sign in to the Store either.

    A quick Google search and I found this:

    Worked like a charm and definitely worth remembering!

    I hope it helps someone else too. :)

    Cheers!

    Cheers for the tip, sadly it doesn't fix the calculator issues I'm having. For some reason after several months the calculator app stops working, running it just shows the outline of the app for a spilt second then it closes. Have tried wsreset as well as the app diagnostic from MS & also uninstalling the calculator app & then reinstalling it from the store. This issue happened in windows 8.1 as well as every build of windows 10.

    Have you tried Tweaking.com - Windows Repair? It's fixed a few problems I've had with my machines at different times.
