Windows 10 mail app opens and then closes

Hello,

I have upgraded to Windows 10 Pro (final non-insider version) with a clean install (formatted hard drive). The Mail app worked for a while but about a 3 days ago it stopped working. Whenever I open it it closes (I assume crashes) after about 5 seconds. In the meantime it is trying to sync my e-mail and I can open a menu like settings but cannot click anything else. Any ideas how to fix the problem? I can't reinstall the app since the option to uninstall is not available on this built-in app. However a friend of mine ran into the same issue and he uninstalled with a powershell script. He says it didn't help. I have 3 accounts registed in the app 1 is outlook, 1 is gmail, 1 is yahoo. Anyone ran into this issue?

I have the same issue. Reinstallation of the app didn't help - now it doesn't crash, but I'm unable to add any mail account - gives me error 0x80040154
