Windows 10: Windows Store Completely Broken

Hi, my Microsoft Store is completely broken. I am running on Version 20H2 Build 19042.867 and my Microsoft store seems to have been completely deleted. If I type it in start, it shows up, but when I click on it, it does not open. When I go to “Add or remove programs” in settings the store doesn’t show. This happened today when I had the same problem with Xbox Accessories. I could not open it like usual, so I attempted to uninstall the app. When I tried to reinstall in the Microsoft Store, I kept getting an error that read “Acquiring License” on an infinite loading bar. So, I went to “Add or remove programs” in settings and reset my Microsoft store application, and now my Xbox Accessories is gone and my Microsoft store is gone. I have been looking for fixes for over 7 hours now, and nothing has worked. Please someone help.

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 Best regards.


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

 

Store completely broken

In the last build I have had an issue with the photos app and therefore I tried Gabe Aul's PowerShell command Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

Afterwards most oft the apps were broken and are called with their package name e.g. Microsoft.WindowsFeedback_cw5n1h2txyewy with the { in front.

I had hoped that the latest build would repair these things as Windows is completely installing again BUT not now not only most of the apps are not working anymore but the store itself is listed as stated above. Microsoft.WindowsStore_8wekyb3d8bbwe

Does not work at all.

What can I do now?
