There are many different apps you can get from the Windows Store. A default app that comes with Windows 11 is Mail. This is an easy way to access multiple email accounts in one place instead of browser hopping from one page to the next. In order to use it, you have to connect the email addresses you want your mail to show from to the app. Here’s how to do it.
How to find the Windows 11 Mail app
At the taskbar on the bottom of your screen, you’ll see a blue Windows icon.
