WIndows 10 Store Not Installed

Hello,

Whenever I try to open Windows Store, it gives me the error message, "This app can't open. There's a problem with Store. Contact your system administrator about repairing or reinstalling it."

When I go to C:\Windows, there's no Winstore folder. Therefore, there is no AppxManifest.xml to guide Powershell in reinstalling everything.

The SFC and DISM are in progress, and I am just about to close Edge to try the "Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers |Where-Object {$_.InstallLocation -like "*SystemApps*"} | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}" command. I don't think I'll have much luck, though, because it calls for the C:\Windows\Winstore\AppXManifest.xml file as well.

EDIT:

Alrighty then, the aforementioned command worked but not to fix Store. It apparently just reinstalled some of the apps, or updated their AppXManifests or something.

So, as I said, nothing. Yay. A little help here?

EDIT:

Neither SFC nor DISM found anything wrong.

    Hi Pranav,

    To assist you better, please provide few details.

    1. What is the exact issue you are facing related to Windows store?
    2. What is the make and model of your computer?

    Kindly reply to us, we will be happy to assist you.

    Thank you,

    1)Camera and windows store are not working. (Xbox, 3d builder, microsoft solitaire and  other microsoft apps are working). It is okay if the camera isn't working but the windows store is an important app. When I click on the windows store it either doesn't even open or it opens for 2 seconds (loading screen only) and force stops itself. I have tried ws.reset.exe , customer support with remote control, the 2  big "microsoft manifest"code in command prompt (admin) and I have done a repair upgrade. Before the upgrade, all of the microsoft apps like xbox, windows store didn't work. After the upgrade some were fixed but the windows store wasn't fixed. I have an attachment below which shows Microsoft Store as "Unavailable" in the settings.

    1. Lenovo IdeaPad U530 Touch (Windows 10 Home, 64-bit OS)

    Please try to give a solution to this problem

    Thanks
