Windows 10: Accidently deleted Microsoft Jigsaw.

I accidently deleted my Microsoft Jigsaw. Why doesn't Microsoft NOW have the easy answer as to how to rectify the problem like they USE to. ie Problems could be solved by clicking 'go back' and you could do 1 to XX minute look back to fix your mistake or deletion. Where is the SIMPLICITY now?

Microsoft Jigsaw Will Not Load

I was getting Error Code: 0x803F8001 both before and after "uninstalling" Microsoft Jigsaw. It worked perfectly for years, but stopped working within the last week. It would start to load, and eventually bomb out. I have tried the following suggestions:

• Uninstall Jigsaw. Now I cannot reinstall Jigsaw. Get Error Code: 0x803F8001
  

• All steps above from Jomari Arc . Step #4 took longer than expected, but it did eventually do what you
  said. These steps did not allow me to reinstall Microsoft Jigsaw.

• Microsoft Windows Store App. Troubleshooter - It ran and said it fixed a "possibly corrupted cache" . This did not allow me to reinstall Microsoft Jigsaw.

In a similar community, titled "Microsoft Jigsaw Error code Ox803F8001", I tried all of the steps from Loraine Mon, from this link: Microsoft Jigsaw Error code Ox803F8001

Again, this did not allow me to reinstall Microsoft Jigsaw. Messages are "downloading", then "acquiring license", and then it errors out with Error Code: 0x803F8001

Day after day, same problem. Xbox and Store and Solitaire all work fine. Microsoft Jigsaw is the problem. When it was installed, it bombed out trying to open. After "uninstalling", it will not reinstall.

 

Microsoft Jigsaw

The first suggestions to answer my problems with Microsoft Jigsaw did not work. I am hoping someone can come up with a suggestion which will work. I did indicate that I had deleted some apps which I thought I would not need. I suspect Microsoft Jigsaw
may have needed one of these apps. Unfortunately I did not record which apps I deleted. If I knew which apps, if any, that Microsoft Jigsaw required I could then ascertain if I had deleted one of these apps.
