r/sysadmin on Reddit: How to re-install the Windows Store
October 19, 2021 -

I have a group of Windows 10 workstations that previously had the group policies "Disable All Apps from the Microsoft Store" and "Turn of the Store application."

Now because of reasons these machines need the Microsoft Camera app installed. After turning off the GPO's, I'm still unable to install either the Windows Store or the Camera app.

I've tried the following

  1. running wsreset.exe

  2. removing and re-installing all store apps with "Get-AppxPackage -allusers | foreach {Add-AppxPackage -register "$($_.InstallLocation)\appxmanifest.xml" -DisableDevelopmentMode}"

  3. Downloading and installing with the appxbundle for the camera app from MS Store for Business

  4. Trying to reinstall the Windows Store with "Get-AppXPackage WindowsStore -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}"

  5. Removing and re-adding the user profile

Short of reimaging the machine, does anyone know another way to reinstall the Windows Store.

Microsoft makes it easier to install Windows store apps from the web | The Verge
April 22, 2024 - Instead of launching the Microsoft Store and a mini window, now when you download apps from the web version of the Microsoft Store it will download a standalone installer instead. This means you don’t have to click install on the web, then allow Chrome or Edge to open the Microsoft Store, and finally hit install to actually install the app.

You can now use winget to install msstore apps on windows 10 and 11. Use winget search <app_name> --source=msstore to make a search, and use the id of the app to install and upgrade the app. For example, to install Netflix:

  1. First I made a search with winget search Netflix --source=msstore, I see that the app id is 9WZDNCRFJ3TJ.
  2. I install app with winget install -e -i --id=9WZDNCRFJ3TJ --source=msstore.
  3. I upgrade app with winget upgrade -e -i --id=9WZDNCRFJ3TJ.

store.rg-adguard.net is a GUI for generating direct download links to store apps. Peeking at the source of that page, we can piggyback off them to download the content directly, but using PackageFamilyName, rather than Name (in your example it would be Microsoft.HEVCVideoExtension_8wekyb3d8bbwe).

function Download-AppxPackage {
[CmdletBinding()]
param (
  [string]$PackageFamilyName,
  [string]$Path
)
   
  process {
    $WebResponse = Invoke-WebRequest -Method 'POST' -Uri 'https://store.rg-adguard.net/api/GetFiles' -Body "type=PackageFamilyName&url=$($PackageFamilyName)&ring=Retail&lang=en-US" -ContentType 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' -UseBasicParsing
    $LinksMatch = $WebResponse.Links | where {$_ -like '*_x64*.appx*'} | Select-String -Pattern '(?<=a href=").+(?=" r)'
    $DownloadLinks = @($LinksMatch.matches.Value)

    for ($i = 1; $i -le $DownloadLinks.Count; $i++) {
      Invoke-WebRequest -Uri $DownloadLinks[$i-1] -OutFile "$Path\$PackageFamilyName($i).appx"   
    }
  }
}

This is limited to the x64 version, and the path must point to a folder. It will download the package and its dependencies and save them all as PackagefamilyName(n).appx
