Can't uninstall Power Toys

JoseBeltran, I was able to successfully install Power Toys from the Microsoft Store, so that is dealt with.

Evidently, Power Shell is not connected to the app list in the Start Menu, either. As I said before, sfc, dism and chkdsk found no problems. How do I reconnect Power Shell to its links?

Thanks for your feedback, Roger. First, we will fix the PowerToys issue, then we will be working on another issue.

Please go to Start, apps and verify if Microsoft Edge WebView 2 is installed if not, please go to https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft..., locate Fixed Version, select the x64 architecture, download the installer, then complete the installation and try again to install PowerToys.

If you get the same error again, please download this prior PowerToys installer and try again.

Let me know, please.

I found it, and it works; I've copied it to the desktop. Is there any way to reconnect the right-click menu item?

I pasted the text into PowerShell and hit enter. When I tried to reinstall PowerToys, I got the same error as before. I'm including the error log incase that can be of help.

I found the link, pasted the .ps1 text and hit enter. The prompt came right back. Did I do it correctly? Also, I saved a copy of the link to my desktop; is there any way to connect that link with the right-click menu, or should I try a repair install to fix the problem?

I also tried to reinstall Power Toys and got the same response as before. What do I do next?

Hi, Roger. Please, using the File explorer, go to %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu folder. Here a Powershell shortcut must exists.

Check it properties. The target must be %SystemRoot%\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe

Let me know if you need anything else.
