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.

    You're working under the assumption that I'm talking about a company computer. I am not. I am speaking of my personal computer.

    I believe the problem is with the image created by the sys admin at your company.  In my case I was the one of the first to use Windows 10 where I work. The sys admins and I were learning together.  They now have an image without any issues whatsoever, I am now on my third system (two pcs and one VM) with zero issues.

    You know what would be great, instead of all of this tenuous, nerve-wracking "mess around reinstalling windows 10 and hope that it doesn't make more problems for itself"? A simple .exe that just installs the Windows Store for us, without having to reinstall the entire OS.

    Why can't that happen? I am genuinely asking? What is preventing that?
