Some user kindly reported crushes and blockages while using Free Movies Box on Windows 10. This workaround offers a solution to this kind of problems. Basically you have to uninstall the app and erase the registry key manually. For unknown reasons Windows 10 do not erase the registries automatically.

Most advanced users know all about it, but if you didn’t know what the Windows registry is, it’s a several megabyte database that stores most of the information for your Windows operating system. It contains thousands of configuration settings for Windows itself, third party software, hardware and preferences for the individual users on the computer. Editing the Windows registry can be dangerous if you don’t know what you’re doing, so be careful and follow the steps.

Step 1 - Uninstall the app. Go to SETTINGS -> System -> Apps & features -> the app is in the lower area of the list (search for the red square). It's easier with a mouse or trackpad, but you can do it on touch devices as well. Tap/click on the app and when Uninstall is visible just tap/click it.

Step 2 - Download RunAsSystem , extract and run it. You can download the small program from the link provided or from our website using this link: Download RunAsSystem (2). This small app / program is needed just to let you operate as system administrator.

Step 3 - Click/tap the Browse button and look for regedit.exe which is normally located in the Windows folder, or simply type regedit into the box.

Step 4 - Once Registry Editor is started, go to following registry key and delete it HKEY_CURRENT_USERSOFTWAREClassesLocal SettingsSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionAppModelRepositoryFamiliesHipgnosisVision.FreeMoviesBox_f8vj1rbx5f5n2

Step 5 - After that just go to Windows Store, search for Free Movies Box and reinstall it just like any other app. Your crush problems disappear.
