    PowerShell commands: errors and failure to register the Store


    I have spent many hours for the last two days trying to get the Store and several apps re-registered and working. On other forums which I have been directed to, such as MS TechNet, much of the advice and links I have been given either generate various errors, or just fail to work. So I have tried here: How to Re-register the Store in Windows 10.
    Again I get errors, commands not recognised and so on.

    What is going on? I have activated the Windows Firewall, I have entered everything using Copy & Paste, so what else must I do to carry out this fairly common procedure?

    :)

    Windows store missing, not working AGAIN

    Yet again the store just stops working. This is the forth time in as many months on two very different PC's. I am very tired of having to follow the usual steps.

    Run WSReset.exe FAILURE

    The Powershell commands FAILURE

    Create new user which always works and is a pain.

    My questions are simple, why is this happening and what is causing the issue and will there ever be a fix

    What below all means ?

    C:\WINDOWS\system32>PowerShell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Command "& {$manifest = (Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.Windows

    Store).InstallLocation + '\AppxManifest.xml' ; Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $manifest}

    Add-AppxPackage : Deployment failed with HRESULT: 0x80073CF6, Package could not be registered.

    Merge Failure : error 0x80070003 : Cannot register the Microsoft.WindowsStore_2015.25.5.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe package

    because there was a merge failure with the following file: C:\Program

    Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.WindowsStore_2015.25.5.0_neutral_split.scale-100_8wekyb3d8bbwe\resources.pri

    NOTE: For additional information, look for [ActivityId] fffec281-46e5-0003-96d1-feffe546d101 in the Event Log or use

    the command line Get-AppxLog -ActivityID fffec281-46e5-0003-96d1-feffe546d101

    At line:1 char:97

    + ... fest.xml' ; Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $manife ...

    + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    + CategoryInfo : WriteError: (C:\Program File...ppxManifest.xml:String) [Add-AppxPackage], IOException

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

    Looks like the command syntax is not right. The path switch is a positional switch. If it is not the first argument you must prefix the appxmanifest.xml path with -Path

    Hi

    I tried the .bat file at the same time as I tried the Power Shell command from this forum, with the same negative result.

    Some of the PowerShell attempts produced a lot of red print which I guess is indicating errors (?), but I did get some which seemed to finish correctly all in green ---- but still did not restore anything.

    My puzzlement is added to by the fact that this is a new computer with newly installed OS and Anniversary plus I have run sfc and Dism, so I am not expecting any accumulated corruption.

    In that case, a repair install may be the best option.
