Updated to Version 1803 OS Build 17134.1

Now cannot open Photos, Groove, Calculator, and I'm sure a bunch of other apps....

Any help would be appreciated.

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:

    Hi BigZub ,

    Click this link to download the Windows Store Apps Troubleshooter and run that to see if it can resolve this issue:

    http://aka.ms/diag_apps10

    Again, check to Store App to see if it is functional . . .

    If not: it may be a problem with Windows Update:

    Click your Start Button type services and hit Enter

    For each of the following services, find them in the list of services, then double click them, if they are not already Started, start them and set their Startup type to Automatic

    Windows Update

    Background Intelligent Transfer Service

    Cryptographic Service

    Close the Services App

    Click your Start Button type cmd, then right click Command Prompt and choose 'Run as Administrator'

    Copy all the following commands and paste them into the command window in one go:

    net stop wuauserv

    net stop cryptSvc

    net stop bits

    net stop msiserver

    ren C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution SoftwareDistribution.old

    ren C:\Windows\System32\catroot2 catroot2.old

    net start wuauserv

    net start cryptSvc

    net start bits

    net start msiserver

    Wait for the all commands to complete.

    Close the Command Prompt

    Thank you,  the 'PowerShell routine' did it for me. Thank you very much.
