Hi there! I understand that your Facebook (FB) app on your Windows device is not starting and you noticed in device maintenance that the FB app keeps crashing, along with a bug report. Let's work together to get this sorted out.
First, to clarify: Are you using a Facebook app installed on Windows, or are you accessing Facebook through a web browser on your Windows 10 device? The troubleshooting steps differ based on that.
Could you also tell me if you have already tried restarting the device or reinstalling the app?
Meanwhile, here’s a general step-by-step you can try on Windows 10 for app crashes:
1. Restart Your Device Sometimes a simple restart resolves temporary glitches.
2. Clear App Cache and Data (if using a Windows app) - Open Settings > Apps > Facebook > Advanced Options. - Choose "Reset" to clear its data. This often fixes crash issues.
3. Check for App Updates - Go to Microsoft Store > Downloads and updates. - Make sure the Facebook app is updated to the latest version.
4. Run Windows Update - Updating your OS ensures compatibility with apps. - Go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update.
5. Reinstall the Facebook App - Uninstall Facebook via Settings > Apps. - Restart your PC and reinstall it from the Microsoft Store.
If you're using Facebook via a browser, trying a different browser or clearing your browser cache and cookies may help.
If after these steps, the app still crashes, there may be a deeper compatibility issue or corrupted system files.
Would you like me to guide you through any of these steps? Also, please let me know which option best fits your current setup (Facebook app or web browser).
