When I enabled those permissions, I was able to get rid of the annoying error message in Mail app. It caused this error message problem in Mail app because Mail app required some permissions such as accessing mail, calendar, contacts. I tried several troubleshooting methods but none of them worked and finally I was able to solve the issue by modifying some Privacy settings in Windows 10 Settings app.Īctually when I installed Windows 10 in my computer, I turned off all app permissions in Settings -> Privacy page to improve privacy. I also tried to disable the Firewall but it didn’t fix the error message. I double-checked my Firewall software and no executable/service was blocked this time.

We’re sorry, but we weren’t able to do that. I selected my email service provider and immediately got following error message: Then it showed setup screen to select email account provider such as, Exchange, Google, Yahoo!, iCloud, etc. I launched Mail app and it asked me to add new email account before using the app. Yesterday I decided to try the Mail app in one of my Windows 10 machines.
