Having failed to access a website I was invited to 'refresh' the computer.  This took about 5 minutes and when it had finished I discovered that several applications had been removed and the e-mail icon had disappeared.  Is there a way to get this back please?

When you clicked on "Refresh" you would have got a message as below:

Refresh your PC

Here’s what will happen

. Your files and personalization settings won’t change.

. Your PC settings will be changed back to their defaults

. Apps from Windows Store will be kept

. Apps you installed from discs or websites will be removed.

. A list of removed apps will be saved on your desktop.

What do you mean by the "Email icon"?
