Windows 10: Appinsntaller missing // store not working // no app associated

Hi,


I can't (re-)install the MS Store as I get the error massage that there is no programm that can open appx files.


Which seems to be correct as there seems to be no appinstaller on my pc.


As I can only d/l the app installer from the MS Store, and as the MS Store doesn't work in the first place, I am stuck in an infinite loop.


How do I get the app installer and associate it with the appinstaller-"file" to get finally the Ms Store to work.


Version: Win 10 64 bit; 10.0.18362 Build 18362 (which is kinda weird as the update tool claims this is the newest version..)


Thanks for answering.

Missing apps: Store, People, Photos, Games & Camera on upgrading to 10

Thanks for replying spunk. That's the 'alphabetical' list I was referring to, none of these apps are in that 'All apps' list. Any more suggestions?

 

windows store & other apps missing and/or not working (properly)


I'll try to keep it short...
after initial problems with both task bar and start menu I've followed the steps from this forum to get it working properly again. Thanx for that, it worked great!

1 day later the store and edge apps were missing from the task bar, I can now only access them through different tabs in the settings menu
all other apps which come with the new Windows 10 OS are "gone".
they appear as blank tiles in the app list and cannot be accessed.





I've tried to re-register both apps and store with help from this forum, so far no luck.
it seems to keep hanging at the initializing or processing part...
the start menu is now completely empty as well, due to the apps not being recognized.

I've even tried to restore Windows 10, that no luck there either, "no changes were made"

anyone got any ideas?
can I go back to Win 7 and restart from there?

 

Mail app will not open on 10041.


Hello Adam,

This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it.

In this Windows 10 build 10041, the Mail, Calendar, and People apps may be broken due to a licensing issue with the Store Beta. To get these apps working again, you need to follow these steps:

• Open powershell as administrator
• Run the command Get-appxprovisionedpackage –online | where-object {$_.packagename –like “*windowscommunicationsapps*”} | remove-appxprovisionedpackage –online
• Re-install Mail, People and Calendar from the Store (green tile)
