  1. Microsoft Store and Windows Security not working


    Hello, recently I had a problem with my Microsoft Store. I can't install any apps and it turns out as Error for everything. I tried to look up online on how to fix it. When i did the Microsoft Store reset in Settings, it did not work and it became even worst, I can't even open Microsoft Store. I look in Apps list in Settings and Microsoft Store is missing. I don't know how to fix this.


    Then, I tried to look up on how to reinstall Microsoft Store using PowerShell but this error came out instead:


    Add-AppxPackage : Deployment failed with HRESULT: 0x80073D0A, The package could not be installed because the Windows Firewall service is not running. Enable the Windows Firewall service and try again.

    error 0x80073D0A: Failed to install package Microsoft.Xbox.TCUI_1.24.10001.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe because the firewall service is not running. Ensure that the firewall service is enabled and started.
    NOTE: For additional information, look for [ActivityId] 67c8aa12-786c-0001-b54c-c9676c78d601 in the Event Log or use the command line Get-AppPackageLog -ActivityID 67c8aa12-786c-0001-b54c-c9676c78d601
    At E:\krisi\Desktop\Windows10Debloater.ps1:393 char:42

    + CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: C:\Program File...ppXManifest.xml:String [Add-AppxPackage], Exception


    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : DeploymentError,Microsoft.Windows.Appx.PackageManager.Commands.AddAppxPackageCommand


    Then I know that I had problem with Windows Security. I tried to click on Open Windows Security but this showed up:


    "You'll need a new app to open this windowsdefender link"


    there nothing else there just Always use this app box and OK, no other options.


    Please help me, It has been 3 days since I look up how to fix this but everything is not working. Thank You!

    :)

    Microsoft Store and Windows Security not working

    The Microsoft Store, and the Xbox app doesn't work!

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand that you are unable to launch Microsoft Store, Xbox app and GameBar. I’ll certainly help you with this issue.



    However, please let us know:



    • Do you receive any error message?
    • Are you aware of any changes made to the computer recently?
    • Which build version of Windows 10 are you using currently? To check type:
      winver in the search bar on the Taskbar and hit
      Enter.


    Meanwhile, I would suggest you to refer the steps mentioned below:



    For issues with launching Microsoft Store, I would suggest you to refer the steps mentioned in the article

    Microsoft Store doesn't launch
    .



    Method 1: Store app troubleshooter



    I would suggest you to run the Store app troubleshooter and check. Refer the steps mentioned below:



    1. Press Windows Logo key + I, to open Settings.
    2. Click on Update & Security and select Troubleshoot from the left pane.
    3. Scroll down, click on Windows Store apps and select Run the troubleshooter.
    4. Follow the on-screen instructions.


    Method 2: Re-register apps



    If Store app troubleshooter doesn’t work, I would suggest you to try re-registering the apps using PowerShell. Refer the steps mentioned below:



    1. Press Windows Logo key + X, and select
      Windows PowerShell (Admin).
    2. Paste the following command and press Enter:
      Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
    3. Once the process is complete, restart the computer and check.


    Method 3: New user account



    If re-registering the apps didn’t work, try creating a new user account and check if the issue persists. Refer the article
    Create
    a local user or administrator account in Windows 10




    Let us know the results.
