    Deleted Microsoft.WindowsStore... folder from user appdata, how to fix


    Long story short, while trying to fix Store (stuck on circles loading screen forever) I ended up deleting the entire Microsoft.WindowsStore.somethingrandomalphanumeric inside my user AppData folder, which stopped the perpetual hang - by making Store not launch at all. I was hoping that deleting that folder would cause Store to reinitialize (like deleting the preference files in Mac OS *spit*), but obviously that is not the case. Is there a way to fix it? I tried converting my account to local and back, and resetting my computer causes a bsod loop then automatically restores.

    :)

    Windows 10 Store closes immediately after opening.

    The "Microsoft.WindowsStore" folder doesn't exist in that folder at all - should it?

    Hi,

    To help you with your concern, kindly follow the steps below just in case you haven't tried it yet:

    • Go to C:\Users\<User>\AppData\Local\Packages\
    • Look for the word Microsoft.WindowsStore.
    • Open the folder and delete Local Cache.
    • Try launching Windows Store again.
    Let us know how it goes.
