    Mail and Calendar app stuck on Creating account


    All,
    My Mail and Calendar app has failed to work since this morning.
    It stopped receiving any mail this morning, with the reset of the mail app pretty much making it useless.

    I have reset the app, restarted the computer and now the next step if it has to happen, a FULL reset of the computer.
    Is there any problems with the way Gmail has been set up today?
    I am running Windows 10 1903 x64 on a Lenovo 330-15ikb.
    Thanks

    Not sure why you are using POP but you must have your reason. Is Gmail set to allow POP.

    Great. I was also going to suggest an App password from gmail.

    Glad you got it sorted.

    Please start a new thread.

    Your issue sounds different as you sound like you removed an app.
