Question

Can't open Windows 10 apps

Apr 12, 2016 10:33AM PDT

I have win 10 tablet, getting error messages when trying to open the store or any other p reinstalled apps. Ran scannow and DSIM codes in the prompts. Error messages came back corrupted files can't repair. Reset to factory function is missing and advanced rerpair. The OS 8.1 is also missing.
I tried to re-install need to load media file first. I get an error when trying to load it, something to do with updates.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Time to make this a warranty issue.

All the W10 tablets I've seen are in warranty. Use your warranty.

Some of these require a return to the maker's repair center to reload the OS. Get a quote as it may be cheaper to replace the failed tablet.
