People app crashes on RTM build, it opens waits at the splash screen and terminates itself. I tried the previous method, changing the contacts.txt file at AppData, but that file is missing.

I've just installed Windows 10 Build 10122 on my SP3 (finally) and I have a problem. The old people app seems not to be correctly installed and I'm not able to uninstall it...
And the new People app and Store (Beta) opens but crashes after a few seconds...
So I recently returned from holiday and saw that my PC hadnt updated from build 10130 to build 10240.
It is stuc at 1% downloading, have left it for a few days, but no luck.
I have been an Insider since the beginning and have received all the updates during the past few months. I'm currently stuck in build 10166 and Windows Update informs me that my device is current. Checking for updates yields nothing new except that Defender is updated daily, sometimes more than once. On the next page I see a "Fix Me" button, but when I click on that up comes a dialog asking if I want to discontinue future builds.
I ran the update troubleshooter, which reports: "Problems found: Service registration is missing or corrupt. Not fixed". I don't know if this is the cause of my problem, nor do I know how to repair the service registration. I suspect this will impair my upgrade to the final Windows 10 build on Wednesday.
Just done a clean install of Windows 10 build 10240 with UK regional settings and Cortana won't enable.
Just says Cortana is not support in my region and language and won't let me enable.
I have been trying to use custom themes on my laptop for the past 2 months, but none of them work fully, and just end up changing the desktop wallpaper, cursor and some colours on the windows, etc.
example of the theme I'm currently trying (what it's supposed to look like):

(ignore the start button, it's from classic shell :x)
I've tried lots of tools like UxStyle, UltraUXThemePatcher, programs to replace explorerframe.dll, etc. but none of them work.
I've had this problem even back when I was still using windows 8.1

Day before yesterday I had downloaded Windows 10 iso using "media creation tool" mine is a 64bit OS & yesterday upgraded my windows 8.1 to Windows 10. After completion of installation Windows 10 got activated & I was very happy with Windows 10 & decided to delete the "Windows.old" folder by using "Disk cleanup" tool everything went fine & started installing my much needed softwares & drivers.
VGA drivers include "Intel graphics driver & NVidia GeFroce 820M graphics driver" & installed "Wamp Server" along with that I had also installed this "vcredist_x64" because it needed one dll file I forgot its name & after that I had downloaded & installed latest version of free BitDefender antivirus, after its installation screen went blank & came back since then Start Menu & other things such as notifications, sound control are not opening. I don't know what all happened in background. Start menu is not working :-( I'm beginning to think that Microsoft has released an half baked OS to general public.
I have Win 10 preview build 10240 and up to date.I want to continue as windows insider, but I want to update to the final version, So if I wanted to remain as an insider, should I upgrade to the final version and connect it with my insider account or stay with my current build 10240....
View 1 RepliesI have tried everything that I know to correct this issue! But the fact of the matter is I can't fix this without having an idstore.sst file that supports the HomeGroup features and services it cannot be restored to it's proper configurations.
So how to turn-on HomeGroup without having the idstore.sst file in C:WindowsService ProfilesLocal ServiceAppDataRoamingPeer Networking folder????
Will Win. 10 not have the idstore file in it or what do I do to correct this??? It is the idstore.sst file that when deleted and re-starting of the system that enables it to renew the idstore.sst file and re-stores connectivity and enabling to the p2p.svc, PRNP.svc, and the Peer Networking Grouping.svc that allows Home Group to run properly. At this point I cannot enable these services without the idstore.sst file.
Can't update to the lastest build of Windows 10 because of the error 0x00000225, and until now can't find a fix for it
View 1 RepliesNone of these apps seem to work on my system. How to reinstall them in the latest build?
View 2 RepliesWhen I click on the people app. The app hangs and instantly crashes a few seconds later. Also we are less than 2 weeks until the official release of Windows 10 and they still haven't fixed the people app.
View 2 RepliesJust got a new build and keep getting crashes while gaming on certain games. I've monitored temps and haven't been any where near thresholds. I stress tested the PC using Prime95 and other benchmarks. A screen print of the minidump analysis is included.
View 5 RepliesJust installed this build on another partition. The OS looks beautiful but it keeps on freezing, randomly. sometimes at the start up or sometimes when the cpu usage increases. The cursor doesn't move, cant even shutdown properly. I've updated my nvidia driver and everything, the problem is still there. Nothing's wrong here on 8.1.
View 10 RepliesWhenever I try to run any game on my PC after 1 minute, everything freezes and I have to reboot. I've tried rolling back my graphics drivers but that didn't work either.
View 9 RepliesSo, recently (after the November build release) I woke the next morning to find that my computer underwent a rather major update. After which, it seemed, my home network was thrown out of wack. I immediately rolled/reverted/recovered to previous build. But now everything is out of wack. Most of the time I have to restart my computer just so it'll communicate with my printer to start printing.
And restarting the computer is twice as long if it restarts at all. Most of the time It gets stuck in the "restart" progress animates (the rotating circles) and I have to press the restart button on the computer tower, with great regret and dread. Transferring files from one windows 10 device to another is a 50/50 hit or miss. I'm not literate when it comes to networking and was super happy how everything was.
But now, not only is my wifi home network out of wack, but my computer itself is wonky. I figure I might as well reinstall the newest build in hopes that it'll at least fix a fe of the problems. But anytime I check for updates, the newest build no longer shows up.
Windows won't display my user name instead on the Start Menu and Log In screen it just shows my Microsoft Account email and again below. I've had this issue since the Insiders Preview started and made posts in the Feedback App as well. Now signing out of the MS Account and back in will resolve the issue, but as soon as I restart the PC for any reason it just defaults back to the MS Account email.
View 17 RepliesI have been using the win10 previous build for about two months. There were three accounts on the log in page, two local accounts (one Administrator one normal) and one windows account. The system was upgraded to build 10240 through the Administrator. But after it's done there are only two accounts left. The Administrator has gone missing.
There are a lot of software installed under the Administrator account. There are a lot of bookmarks, settings etc as well. So I always use the local Administrator account rather than the windows account. In fact I don't know how to transfer them onto the windows account. But now it's gone. How to restore it?
When I upgraded to Windows 10 I set up the People App to list my contacts by syncing with my Outlook account. It worked great until this week. Now it attempts to sync followed by a message in red under the account saying attention required. When I attempt to open that account to edit the setting I get a dialog box with error code 0x008072ee2 that says "something went wrong". The only option is to close that window after which the account tries to sync again as the process repeats itself.
How can I delete this account and start over. I have remove the people app and reinstalled it and I have re-registered all of the apps with no success.

View 1 RepliesI followed the instructions, go to settings in the People app and add the account. I have Facebook app installed, it says to download it. I uninstalled Facebook and reinstalled. When you click to add the account it goes to the store and comes up with an error. How do we get this to work?

Get the message that my Browser needs to be updated, click on the message and it tells me my Browser (IE10) is the latest version.
Am using IE instead of Edge due to many Malware instances using Edge... they are not there in IE10.
I have a contacts cvs file from my live mail 2012 but have not been able to import it to the People app.
View 4 RepliesI know that there have been comments about Fb and Twitter integration when using the People hub on W10.
I'm just wondering if we're all in the same boat?
When displaying contacts - with FB and Twitter installed - clicking on "showing" lets me select contacts from my email accounts but not my social apps.
When clicking on "Get social apps" in settings, I get a message saying Your search for "" had no results.
Works fine (ish) on my Wp10 insider build.
I've searched around for an answer to this but I couldn't find anything. Does the People App in Windows 10 bring in profile pictures from Facebook? This worked great in Windows 8.1 and all the mobile versions (even WP10 preview) but for some reason all my contacts in the People App have blank pictures and I'm not sure how to get this fixed. I have the Facebook app installed but I'm not sure if there is anything else I need to do. It's annoying seeing all the blank pictures.
