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.

    I have the Same Problem on Windows 10 Pro.

    I already Reset my PC (with Keep my Files and after this was not helpful, a complete Reset)

    Also tryed:

    PS C:\WINDOWS\system32> powershell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $Env:

    SystemRoot\WinStore\AppxManifest.XML

    Add-AppxPackage : Der Pfad "C:\WINDOWS\WinStore\AppxManifest.XML" kann nicht gefunden werden, da er nicht vorhanden

    ist.

    In Zeile:1 Zeichen:1

    • Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register C:\WINDOWS\WinStore ... 
    •

        + CategoryInfo          : ObjectNotFound: (C:\WINDOWS\WinStore\AppxManifest.XML:String) [Add-AppxPackage], ItemNot

       FoundException

        + FullyQualifiedErrorId : PathNotFound,Microsoft.Windows.Appx.PackageManager.Commands.AddAppxPackageCommand

    PS C:\WINDOWS\system32>

    AND:

    PS C:\Users\sebas\Desktop> .\reinstall-preinstalledApps.ps1 *Microsoft.WindowsStore*

    Sicherheitswarnung

    Führen Sie ausschließlich vertrauenswürdige Skripts aus. Skripts aus dem Internet können zwar nützlich sein, stellen jedoch auch eine

     potenzielle Gefahr für Ihren Computer dar. Wenn Sie diesem Skript vertrauen, lassen Sie mit dem Cmdlet "Unblock-File" die Ausführung

     des Skripts ohne die Warnmeldung zu. Möchten Sie "C:\Users\sebas\Desktop\reinstall-preinstalledApps.ps1" ausführen?

    [N] Nicht ausführen  [M] Einmal ausführen  [H] Anhalten  [?] Hilfe (Standard ist "N"): M

    No provisioned apps match the specified filter.

    PS C:\Users\sebas\Desktop>

    But nothing changed.
