Hi, try the following.
On the affected PC open Registry Editor and navigate to the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Appx\AppxAllUserStore\InboxApplications
Under this key find they key relating to Windows Store app, this would be:
winstore_1.0.0.0_neutral_neutral_cw5n1h2txyewy
Open this key and double click Path value, then copy its path.
The path will be:
C:\Windows\WinStore\AppxManifest.xml
This is the path to the XAML file that is the Windows Store app. (You may confirm this by opening the file in an elevated application, like elevated Notepad.)
Indeed, opening gives us:
<Applications> <Application Id="Windows.Store" StartPage="WinStore.htm"> <VisualElements DisplayName="ms-resource:TileDisplayName" Description="ms-resource:Description"
Now reinstall the app. To do that follow the procedure below:
1. Open Windows PowerShell ISE elevated by holding CTRL+SHIFT keys pressed when clicking the PoSH ISE icon.
2. Paste the following line into the PoSH prompt:
Add-AppxPackage -Register "C:\Windows\WinStore\AppxManifest.xml" DisableDevelopmentMode
and hit ENTER to run the command.
This will reinstall your Windows Store app.
If you get an error that you haven't enough privileges, please temporary change execution policy by executing the following one-liner at the PowerShell ISE's command line:
Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope Process -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned
The Set-ExecutionPolicy cmdlet specifies that cmdlets are allowed to be run locally and are required to be digitally signed when executed from a remote computer, but all that for the current session only. Once you close the PowerShell ISE window, your PowerShell execution policy will revert to the state it had before you set the policy to RemoteSigned.
Hi,
In addition to Exotic Hadron mentioned,please run the following in a Command Window (CMD) to re-register the Store App:
powershell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $Env:SystemRoot\WinStore\AppxManifest.XML
