This is just a quick solution for those, who suffering from this apps not working. This bug was discovered about a month ago after first wave of Windows 10 updates.  I thought  it will be fixed soon with another update, but seems  MS not going to fix so I better wrote this workaround. Symptoms: Mail app stop getting emails or hangs during start or (mainly Error 0x8007054e) shows error when you try to add account to it (same account problem with Calendar).    Reinstalling this apps from the Store does not help. Solution: Reboot, then without starting any apps go to  %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local and remove (or move to another location) folder Comms .   That's it ! Now can add accounts and continue using this apps !

 Its appears to be a common problem with this network adapters and server versions of Windows. This post solves problem with Server 2012R2, but it can be used for other versions of Windows Server i.e 2008, 2008R2, 2012 and 2016. There are now official drivers for Intel I211-AT and Intel I218V. But there are drivers for same adapters with different letter indexes. Idea is simple - Intel separates chips for desktop and server versions, forcing  to setup more expensive versions of this chips for servers. I`m not sure if there any serious difference, but  Asus  use desktop versions for their motherboards since they targets for desktop segment. So its incorrect to blame Asus for not supporting Server versions of Windows on support page. At the same time many users would like to install Windows  server  OS on their Asus motherboards. Funny situation - Gigabyte uses cheap Realtek network adapters on their motherboards and have no problems. But Intel adapters are more powerful.
