Windows 10: Suddenly some apps won't load anymore

Have just posted this on another thread....

Try this....Open Task Manager....click on Startup tab.....if OneDrive is there disable.....then Restart computer.

Do a Chkdsk on main "C" Drive by right clicking on Winkey (bottom left corner) click on Windows Powershell (Admin) and type chkdsk /r ......press enter......when finished try downloading a Store App.

If successful re-enable OneDrive in Startup and restart computer.

Now try once again to download app from Store

 

I did all that but the store isn't showing up in my apps. I can't find it when i search. Should I try from the online store? I actually am not even sure how to access that. The other time I tried was via a link someone posted.

 

Hi there. Try this: Clear and Reset Store Cache in Windows 10 Windows 10 Performance Maintenance Tutorials

 

When I did that as directed, the command window opened but the store didn't.

 

Have you made any backup disks?

 

Right click Winkey and click on run.....type wsreset.exe.....press enter.
Restart pc and sign in with your M$ user account.

 

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

If you run the above in an Admin Power Shell it should at least put the store back.

 

Nothing different after doing that. *Sad

 

I haven't. I don't think I've ever done anything like that. My data is backed up to a cloud service but that's about it.

The scannow and restorehealth each confirmed the integrity of the operating system.
The chkdsk scan confirmed that your drive was without errors.
The new user test confirmed that your default user is corrupt.
Running the powershell command again with the new user account should work in fixing any store problems. The problem that remains is the corrupt user account.

In the links below the powershell commands to fix the store problems failed in the corrupt user account and worked in the new user account.

I got through all of the reimage scan but now I have to pay to fix anything. That was a waste of time. I don't mind paying but this is something that shouldn't have gotten screwed up in the first place. I'll keep looking for other options.

 

Pay who? Pay what?
There is free Macrium.

 

It was for reimage. I have two cloud based backups so I'm not worried about backing up my c drive. I created a restore point manually. I also tried the fix through the registry and nothing changed. So I guess I have to create a new user, which I really didn't want to do, since I will then have to go through and change all the settings again. And I have a feeling it could easily happen again and then I'd be back to square one. I'll try the windows reset when I get a chance.

 

Nothing worked so I did a reset. That seemed to do the trick. Unfortunately my emails were not on the roster of "my files" which I opted to keep so now I have to download them from my cloud backup. Which wouldn't be a big deal if my connection wasn't slow. So it'll take a while-possibly days. Then I can reinstall my cloud backup program and my email program. In the meantime I have to reinstall everything I had before.
