WIndows 10 Store Not Installed

Anonymous

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.

That's what I got when I tried your way:

Add-AppxPackage : Deployment failed with HRESULT: 0x80073CF6, Package could not be registered.

error 0x80073CFC: While processing the request, the system failed to register the windows.integrityExtension extension due to the following error: The

application cannot be started. Try reinstalling the application to fix the problem.

.

NOTE: For additional information, look for [ActivityId] e267cabb-99ce-0001-a925-68e2ce99d501 in the Event Log or use the command line Get-AppPackageLog

-ActivityID e267cabb-99ce-0001-a925-68e2ce99d501

You're going to need to Repair Install by installing the Media Creation Tool from this link http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/media-creation-tool-install choosing Download Tool Now, install the tool, open it and choose Upgrade this PC Now. This reinstalls WIndows while saving your files and apps in place; takes about an hour, resolves most problems. It also brings it to the latest version by the most stable method.

This is in the steps I wrote out for you above, one of which always works for everyone of thousands I have given them to repair the Store.

When I use your method to reset the windows store, there is an error message that says that Windows couldn't find WSReset.exe. I even restarted my computer to see if it changed anything. Noting happened, could you please help?

Thanks.
