    I've had this problem for a while. It appeared then seemed to clear itself up after a few weeks. Today it is back.

    Worth noting that it's doing it across multiple Windows 10 machines. Precisely the same symptoms as above.

    Guess it's just a 'wait and see' game, as usual, but another nail in the coffin of my confidence in M$ products. After weeks of calendars and people apps not sync'ing properly, the lure of moving to the Google eco-system, much as that pains me, is growing.

    This happened to me when I updated my mail app, for some reason the store app didn't register that the app was updated and displayed the wrong number.

    I had to remove the app with powershell, and typed
    Get-AppxPackage *windowscommunicationapps* | Remove-AppxPackage

    After, I opened the store and redownloaded the mail app and the issue was solved.
    The real challenge is figuring which app is causing this for you...

    I saw it briefly but it went. Looked in reliability monitor and I think it was ‘store purchase app’ that mysteriously installed in background
    The same thing just happened for me. The Store app updated and the problem is gone (again).

    Ah thanks for alerting me to that. For me it was just something called store purchase app that updated but I did a check for updates just now and the whole store app updated. Total waste of time, just a change of icon (which looks worse) and name change to Microsoft store. I wish they’d leave the native apps alone, they update (and break) them far too much!
