High CPU usage in state repository service after clean install of Fall Creators Update while online via ethernet

Why do apps including Microsoft Edge and Settings freeze when clicking on hyperlinks and make CPU usage reach 100% on state repository service after a totally clean install including deleting all partitions of the Fall Creators Update while online via Ethernet.  The only fix is to reinstall the ISO media with the Ethernet cable unplugged and wait until the OOBE setup asks for the region before reconnecting the Ethernet cable.  I have to physically unplug the Ethernet cable from the router to prevent it from accessing the internet during the first just a moment phase of the OOBE setup before the region setup.

    That one worked for me as well

    Start PowerShell.exe as administrator, and run the following command:

    Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

    After workaround with disabling "Open site in Apps" in Edge settings, I still observe this issue, for example, after clicking href in Skype message. Still the same process "State bla-bla-bla" loads my CPU. It is very-very-very annoying bug, really.

    Or, reinstall Windows with Ethernet unplugged - it works for me.
