Microsoft Store Apps are the central charm of Windows OS. One such app is the Weather app, and after using it, we observed strange behavior on our PC. When you use the Weather app, it generates too many error events if you closely monitor the system’s activity. Detailed information about these errors could be obtained from the same Event Viewer window.
It may be possible that you can come around to this issue because the services required for the Weather app to work efficiently depend on location. However, you can fix this issue by reinstalling the Weather app. But in case you’re not able to manage the problem by reinstallation, you can try the following fix.
