Malformed PowerShell command Get-AppXPackage error

I have tried all of the suggested corrections for a start menu that is not working. The last command in the most reasonable suggestion uses as it's last two statements PowerShell and the one listed below. I have tried
this command several times, making sure there are no typing errors and every time I get the Error message below. Is there any way to repair the database disk image which is indicated as "malformed"?

Windows 10 Tweaks

@W1zzard looks like the hashing/version is different on some systems
this syntax works better
powershell "Get-AppxPackage *3d* | Remove-AppxPackage"
powershell "Get-AppxPackage *bing* | Remove-AppxPackage"
powershell "Get-AppxPackage *solit* | Remove-AppxPackage"
powershell "Get-AppxPackage *people* | Remove-AppxPackage"
powershell "Get-AppxPackage *zune* | Remove-AppxPackage"
powershell "Get-AppxPackage *photos* | Remove-AppxPackage"
powershell "Get-AppxPackage *phone* | Remove-AppxPackage"
powershell "Get-AppxPackage *communi* | Remove-AppxPackage"
someone already compiled all the tweaks listed into a handy choice driven .cmd file
you can get that from here
