3D Builder has disappeared from my Windows 10 and the MS store doesn't have a download option to put it back

The title pretty much says it all.

For some reason 3D Builder is no longer listed on my PC. It does not exist in Add/Remove programs either. No idea why.

The point is that I can't get it back because when I go to the MS store there is no download button available.

How do I get 3D builder reinstalled on my PC?

Thanks

    Thank you for these instructions.

    Unfortunately none of them worked.

    However, another person here has provided me with a solution and 3D Builder is now reinstalled and working correctly.

    Cheers

    I also tried following the following the instructions for completely removing it from my PC.

    However, it seems that all the things I need to remove are already gone.

    Where do I go from here?

    Thanks
