Windows 10: Start empty and store gone after update

Hello all,

I updated the newest windows 10 update. (KB3147458)
Now my start menu icons are gone, and store is also gone..
Anyone else with that problem?

:)

 

Fall creator Win10 update problems

The latest update process seemed to work ok. Dell laptop Inteli7, Radeon graphics, bought in July 2017. After doing the update, I noticed that the taskbar icon for going to the Play Store was invisible, but clicking the space goes to the site as it did before.
The tiles on the start menu are almost gone compared to what was there before the update. The alphabetical list on START seem to be smaller and my recently used list is almost empty. At this time, I'm thinking about restoring to pre-update version. Any other
ideas?

windows 10 store not working and gone from the taskbar

This issue is all over the web - people lose the store and some of the apps that come with it.

It is ALL OVER THE WEB, yet every answer from Microsoft leads to nothing.

Nothing at all.

This is highly frustrating.

Once more:

Many people (me included) have lost the store after an update. The tile doesn't lead to anything and is empty. The store is GONE.

Please make available a package that makes it possible to reinstall these apps. It is urgent.

 

Hi, if you don't have a usable System Restore point, you could try this:
Open an admin level command prompt
(E.g. Window key + X, Comand prompt (admin) )

Type powershell, <Enter>
At the flashing prompt, copy and paste this command line:

Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

> press <Enter>.


Note: Up to maybe a month or so ago this broke some apps (since build 10586 came out) but it seems MS may have fixed it finally- certainly some have used it recently with success again.

 

Yes! thank you!
Store apps are back in the start menu.
Seems to work fine again.. *Party

There were some errors, but I think I can ignore those..?

Great - first time I've felt able to recommend that since November.. but not seen a statement MS had fixed it yet..
