Please make sure to uninstall the Microsoft Store and Xbox app first.

**Uninstall the Xbox app

Open Settings then select Apps

Under Apps and Features, find Xbox app

Click it then Uninstall

Once the two apps are uninstalled, install the Xbox app from the link below

https://aka.ms/XboxInstaller

Restart your computer then open the Xbox app

This will prompt to install the Microsoft Store app

Please check if the issue still persists.

Kindly let me know if this helps or if you have any further concerns.

Find the Microsoft Store Install Service and double=click,

If Disabled, change it to Automatic, click Start and click OK.

If still doesn't work, Please try to Perform a Repair Install of Windows 10 with an In-place Upgrade. It will definitely help in resolving update errors. Performing this can repair broken operating system files while preserving your personal files, settings and installed applications. The in-place upgrade will also bring you the latest Windows update.

Ensure you are signed in or have administrator rights to do a repair install

Unplug all external peripherals except for the Mouse, Keyboard, and LAN cable before starting

Disable or uninstall any 3rd party Anti-Virus program to prevent it from interfering with the upgrade

I found the way to reinstall it. I followed this link and it worked. It might help someone...

https://www.winhelponline.com/blog/restore-windows-store-windows-10-uninstall-with-powershell/

After visiting innumerous resources, this one (which I hope google will index it first soon, given it's the only one that works (see comments there)) finally solves it.

In my case, the steps were not exactly the same, so here is a recap of what worked for me, but based on the solution above:

1. I did not have XBox app installed, so googled for it and eventually downloaded from here.
2. The original solution mentions a Settings tab, which I do not see, I guess the app was upgraded since then. Anyway, the same can be achieved by following the recommendation pop-up at the bottom - clicking at Fix them in settings (see screenshot below)

3. Then the following window appears. Choose to install App Store (mine is missing because I am screenshooting AFTER solving the issue). As opposed to the original solution, I only installed this one, and it suffices.

That's it. You should have App Store now.
