I found another post on this site that has the EXACT issue I have been having but it is closed with no solution. Here is a link to that original post Windows calculator launches only on the third try
Tldr: calc app, when opened with the calc button on keyboard, opens to just a blue screen with only the option to close, 2nd try does nothing, 3rd try opens like normal. If using multiple times in short period it works fine after that. If left unopened for a short period, same problem recurs. If I open it through the start menu or other way I have not noticed this issue. Since I use the calc many times during my work day this is very frustrating. I have reset the app, I have deleted and reinstalled the app, I power cycled the computer, I made sure all the windows updates were done. No other notes issues. Has been happening for a few months. If anyone has any ideas I'm all ears!
