Windows 10: microsoft store doesnt open at all

my Microsoft store quite literally doesn't open , I could click on it a million times but it still doesn't show any signs of existing other than the icon no errors and even no signs of it starting on task manager I think I might have accidentally deleted it somehow since it used to work just a couple of months ago , I have already tried the wsreset.exe fix but it just says "You'll need a new app to open this MS-store link" any idea on how I can perhaps reinstall it ?

:)
