Using my Surface Pro 4 on Windows 10 insider builds, it broke some metro apps after upgrade multiple times. Sometimes a new build makes some apps work again, sometimes it break others.
I followed multiple reddit posts/tutorials/shell/powershell commands to no avail, such as:

The app crash error can be narrowed down to Twin-UI windows event log, for example (sorry for the french):
- L'activation via le service d'assistance de contrat de l'application 57858MessageAcrossStudios.Readit_nts9jg5frnds0!App pour le contrat Windows.Launch a échoué avec Échec de l’exécution du serveur.
- Échec de l’activation de l’application 57858MessageAcrossStudios.Readit_nts9jg5frnds0!App pour le contrat Windows.Launch avec l’erreur : L’application n’a pas démarré..
- ActivateApplicationForContractByAppIdAsUserWithHost de l'application 57858MessageAcrossStudios.Readit_nts9jg5frnds0!App pour le contrat Windows.Launch a échoué avec L’application n’a pas démarré..
Before re-installing the last insider build from scratch, can you confirm there is no other fail-proof solution, or solution I didn't try that worked for you in a similar case.
Thanks !
