Are you experiencing crashes with an application in Windows 10? These are the steps you can take to solve them
A few days ago we saw how to restore our PC when it began to offer lower performance than normal or when it was going to change owners. We saw three methods to leave it almost as fresh out of the box, three options that however can be the last step to take
And it is that to solve performance problems with some applications that have started to work badly or give errors, it is not necessary to go to such extremes. For this we are going to use the new Microsoft option by which we can work concisely with the affected application
Before we continue, note a very important aspect: only some applications downloaded from the Microsoft Store are compatible with this method. If the app has been downloaded and installed in another way, we only have to use the method that we all know to solve errors. Uninstall (if possible with the uninstaller) and reinstall.
"To start the application formatting process we access the Windows 10 Settings menu using the gear wheel in the lower area left."
In the window that opens on the screen we must look for access to the Applications submenu. By _clicking_ on it we will see how we can access all the applications we have installed and all the options they offer."
From among all the applications we choose the one we want to restore and with the right mouse button we _click_ to access Advanced options. "
"Once inside Advanced Options we will see a _slider_ that we must lower in order to find the options that interest us, called Finish, Repair and Reset It is about choosing the one that interests us the most and for this we must know what each one consists of."
With the first, with Finish, Windows will close the application but our data will not be deleted (account, user, password... ). It is the softest option."
And if this method does not solve the problem we can go to Repair, a system by which Windows will analyze the application to detect possible failures and correct them and do so without modifying our data."
"Lastly Reset is an option that indicates its purpose in the name. It will erase all data and the app will be installed again from scratch."
At this point we remember what we said before; Not all applications offer these options, so we have no choice but to try the desired ones, one by one, to see if they are within the compatible.
