    UWP Apps completely broken


    So I tried to fix a crashing issue on my computer it's fixed now, it turned out to be a malfunctioning application and now none of my UWP apps work. I found other people with similar issues but some of them said



    1. Reset the Microsoft store via settings

    I don't even see the Microsoft store option so I don't think it's installed in the first place


    2. Run this in admin PowerShell:


    Get-AppXPackage *WindowsStore* -AllUsers Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$$_.InstallLocation\AppXManifest.xml"}


    It gave me this error message:

    Add-AppxPackage : Cannot find path 'C:\AppXManifest.xml' because it does not exist.

    At line:1 char:53

    + ... Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$$_.I ...

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

    + CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: C:\AppXManifest.xml:String [Add-AppxPackage], ItemNotFoundException

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


    I have no idea what that means but I can make out that the AppXManifest.xml file doesn't exist for whatever reason


    3. Run SFC


    It said there were corrupted files but were unfixable


    4. Update windows


    I'm already up to date


    5. Run the windows store app troubleshooter


    Did not solve my problem

    :)

    Mail app will not open on 10041.

    Hello Adam,

    This is the suggested solution below if you haven't already tried it. UWP Apps completely broken :)

    In this Windows 10 build 10041, the Mail, Calendar, and People apps may be broken due to a licensing issue with the Store Beta. To get these apps working again, you need to follow these steps:

    • Open powershell as administrator
    • Run the command Get-appxprovisionedpackage –online | where-object {$_.packagename –like “*windowscommunicationsapps*”} | remove-appxprovisionedpackage –online
    • Re-install Mail, People and Calendar from the Store (green tile)

  3. UWP app icons in Windows 10 build 14316 are corrupt


    Pic: Screenshot - e3291153f0df01ad3d2174770a3e7379 - Gyazo

    As you can see, the Win32 app icons are completely fine, but all of the UWP app icons are corrupted. They almost appear as if they're running in some sort of safe mode.

    Any suggestions?

    UWP Apps completely broken

    Windows Updated(16299.309).KB4088776 Restart is required to complete.

    Hi dalchina. Good news, I followed your suggestion and reinstalled the update and now it appears as "installed correctly" *Biggrin Maybe it was not necessary to run the Windows Update Troubleshooter or maybe if necessary. But using it I do not think it could have worsened something. The installation was very fast, unlike the first time it showed step 1 and step 2 completed.

    Thanks for the suggestions and for the time to respond UWP Apps completely broken :) Best regards.


    And thanks for the tip of that program, I'll have it on my list.
