    How to Remove / Reinstall Corrupted Windows Apps


    I recently upgraded my Apps Disk D: on my PC. I cloned the disk from the original and replaced it.


    After rebooting Windows, all is well apart from all the Windows Store apps that were on the D: drive no longer work.
    The D:\WindowsApps folder has copied over, and all the app packages are still in there, but Windows can no longer find them.


    Now I can neither run, uninstall, or reinstall any of the Apps that are on the D: drive.


    I can install new apps to the D: drive from the Window Store, and can "Move" existing Windows Apps from C: to D:.


    How can I fix this situation, or forcibly remove the applications to allow me re-install them?

    Attempt to run app:

    Attempt to unistall app:

    Attempt to Reinstall fails at start of download stage:

    From what I can find the issue is with the Volumes that windows thinks the app are installed on. How can you fix the volume information for a Windows App?


    Can anyone help???


    Simon.

    Reinstalling Windows 10 to sell a PC - is the 'Remove everything' option enough?

    Restore factory settings do list Removes your personal files, apps and settings, and reinstalls the version of Windows that came on this PC.

    So if this isn't true well than just erase the drive and install a clean Windows 10 with all the drivers u need but why should it be true

    removed apps

    Hi Marianne,

    One way on how to reinstall apps is by downloading it from Windows
    Store. To isolate your query about reinstalling apps, we just have a few questions:

    • Are you referring to the apps that have been downloaded from Windows Store? If so, what are the apps that have been removed from your device?
    • How the apps got removed from your device?

    Meanwhile, if you're trying to reinstall apps that have been downloaded from
    Windows
    Store, we suggest that you follow these steps:

    • Click Start, type Store, then press
      Enter
      .
    • On the search bar, type in the name of the app you wish to reinstall, then press
      Enter.
    • Click Free or Buy and wait for the program to install.

    Please post back with the result for further assistance.
