Open Start, type: powershell

Right click PowerShell

Click Run as administrator



Type the following command then hit Enter, exit PowerShell then restart, then try updating through the Store again.



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

Check if you can launch the Microsoft Store, then update the apps.

If this does not work, I recommend you attempt a repair upgrade:

    After hours and hours of trying to figure out all the suggested fixes, I just searched my computer files for "restore" which brought up a screen that allowed me to restore my computer settings back to a date prior to the Windows 10 July 16 update that caused tens of thousands of people this problem.

    Only took a few minutes, my settings were restored back to July 9, and Bingo!  All my photo and image capabilities came back.  I don't want updates that destroy any of my current critical functions.  If they do, I'll just keep "un-doing" them.
