Windows 10: Announcing Windows 10 Insider Preview Fast Build 17110 - Feb. 27

UUP2ISO was updated recently. Always try to use the latest version. *Smile

 

You have to reinstall uup2iso. This problem has now been fixed.

 

[Based on slicedice method]

This command $pn = Get-AppxPackage (Microsoft.WindowsStore).PackageFullName did not work in my case *Mad so, using image [MR} I found location of \AppxManifest.xml. It was
C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.WindowsStore_11712.1001.20.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\AppxManifest.xml
Using it I executed in sequence (powershell prompt, as administrator):
Code: PowerShell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.WindowsStore_11712.1001.20.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\AppxManifest.xml" exit[/quote] It works *Cool

 

It works *Cool[/quote] Yes, it works for me as well, thanks for the solution *Biggrin

 

Interesting. Seems we all have random values missing. Great you guys got it working.

EDIT: Maybe you guys have 2 versions of Store installed? Then my command does not work since it will produce an Array.

EDIT: Aah, I see now that the command is wrong. Editing the original post a bit

 

After install of 17110 Windows Pro version I tried activating Hyper-V and Windows Defender Application Guard in Programs and Features. After activation restarts I found that I could no longer shutdown the machine within Windows from any user account nor from the lock screen. Only way to shutdown was a hard shutdown. After removing Hyper-V and Windows Defender Application Guard machine responded to shutdown properly thereafter. Reported on feedback hub.

 

Code: $rp = "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\"[/quote] Code: $pn = (Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.WindowsStore)."PackageFullName"[/quote] Code: $mf = "\AppxManifest.xml"[/quote] Code: $manifest = $rp + $pn + $mf[/quote] Code: Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $manifest[/quote]

Reboot computer


To verify all works, press Windows Key and type Store. Wait for search to find Microsoft Store and press ENTER.

Voilá! Store working again!

Update: There exist another solution at Windows blogs that many report as working solution. However that solution did not work for me since it uses the InstallLocation variable, which was missing completely for me. Hi All,

I've solved the problem by executing

Code: add-appxpackage -register -disabledevelopmentmode "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.WindowsStore_11712.1001.20.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\AppxManifest.xml"[/quote] with Windows Powershell (Admin)

[/quote] Yep, my solution does exactly the same thing. As stated, I separated the code for short one liners, for easy copy paste.

The real difference is that with hard coded paths to a specific store version, the solution works only for that store version. What if the version changes? What if someone is running 32-bit Windows? *Wink

Glad you got it working!

 

FYI! Be cautious using Edge in this build. I was testing Edge and when I went to use my bookmarks the bookmark window flashed and all my bookmarks got deleted.

 

LOL!

Did not come as a surprise to me. I never bookmark anything in Edge. The whole bookmarking system is a mess and inconvenient to use. *Smile

Thanks for the warning!

 

WTH!?!

When creating/setting up first account (offline account) after clean install, Setup asks to specify answers to 3 different security questions selected from a drop down. Hahha, what if there is no answer to those questions? I certainly can think of many who can't answer any of those. No way to skip this and no way to add custom questions.

I know MS takes security seriously but this is being ridiculous!

 

I didn't time it. Started it and left it to its own devices. When I got home, installation was complete.

 

I found this, Edwin, but that's about all I know.

 

It works *Cool[/quote] Wowser, Chris! It worked! Thanks bunches!

 

You are misinterpreting what that functionality is for. It is not a security function but simply to help people who have forgotten their local password to relogin. Point is that it is meant to be simple.

Anybody wanting to get round password can reset it using a number of techniques well publicised on web.

If you want more secure answers to questions, you can always answer the questions in some code e.g. put name in reverse e.g. ECIDNECILS or move along one letter e.g. IBM becomes HAL (2001 HAL was descibed as being one step beyond IBM), add year you were born e.g. DAVE1996 etc.
