Microsoft Store doesn't work or open at all

Hi!

I have tried many months to fix Microsoft Store. I have ran commands on PowerShell and nothing works. Microsoft Store doesn't even show up in the app list or system apps list.

Any ideas what to do? Could I reinstall the whole Store somehow? I'm hopeless.

Thanks for helping!

    Microsoft has a monopoly on PC's, so there is no solution.

    These tech people just want to put something on their resumes. They know that there is no solution.

    Microsoft hates their customers, because they don't have to compete to earn them.

    All Microsoft products are pure trash.

    I tried everything to fix this issue myself turns out it was becasue my pc wasnt allowing my apps to obtain account information.

    There is a super easy fix

    1. Go to settings
    2. Privacy and Security
    3. Scroll down to Account Info
    4. Under Let Apps Access Your Account Info check the Microsoft Content and Email and Accounts

    I tried this, but the Xbox app could not be uploaded. It gave error 0x80070490

    Any ideas would be nice.

    Please try performing an In-place Upgrade. Performing this can repair broken operating system files while your personal files, settings and installed applications will not be removed.

    Few things to check on the PC

    **Unplug all external peripherals except for the Mouse, Keyboard, and LAN cable before starting

    **Disable or uninstall any 3rd party Anti-Virus program to prevent it from interfering with the upgrade

    Kindly let me know if this helps or if you have any further concerns.

    Kind regards,
