Hello

Here are the steps to reinstall it:

1. Uninstall Microsoft Store: Open a PowerShell window as an administrator. In the PowerShell window, type the following command and press Enter: Get-AppxPackage -allusers WindowsStore | Remove-AppxPackage. This command removes the Store app for all users on your PC.
2. Restart Your PC: After the command has finished running, close PowerShell and restart your PC.
3. Reinstall Microsoft Store: Open a PowerShell window as an administrator again. In the PowerShell window, type the following command and press Enter: Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers Microsoft.WindowsStore* | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "_.InstallLocation)\\AppXManifest.xml\"}. This command reinstalls the Store for all users on your system.
4. Restart Your PC Again: After you’ve executed the command, restart your PC. You should now have a new copy of Microsoft Store installed on your computer.

This one worked for me, just combined the commands from the other answers found here. Note: you have to use the -Allusers option with the Get-AppxPackage command since it is not installed anymore under your current user account:

Get-AppxPackage -allusers *windowscalculator* | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml”}

To reinstall Store, you can use one of these methods:

Option 1

Please try "Method 2" (downloading the Store Appx offline installer) in the following article:

• Reinstall Microsoft Store in Windows 10/11

After downloading the Msixbundle and Appx packages, you can double-click to install them. Install the Appx (dependency packages) first, then run the Msixbundle file. If you can't install the packages interactively, you can install them using the Add-AppxPackage PowerShell command.

Option 2

Open an Admin Command Prompt and type:

• winget install 9WZDNCRFJBMP

(9WZDNCRFJBMP is the SKU ID for the Microsoft Store app.)

Option 3

• Install the Xbox app by downloading the .msi from Xbox App for Windows PC.
• Open the Xbox App.
• Open Settings.
• Click on the General settings tab (left second tab on the list)
• In the upper right of the screen, there will be a list of system bundles that are missing. Click install on all of them.
• After installing the bundles, close the Xbox app.

(Credits to dre76fixitproper for this method.)

Thank you.

You have a few options here.

1. See if you have the Xbox app. If so, launch it, go through the initial set up or whatnot. Once all the way in, it might provide you a list of items with a yellow warning indicating issue with them. It might also provide you an installation option to install it. See if Store app is one of them. If so, you should be able to install it from there.
2. Go to Start > All apps, locate Powershell, right click and "run as admin". Run this command:

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

3. If the computer was just set up out of box, you can also consider a factory reset to start over. Hold down Shift key while you choose Windows restart, then go to Troubleshoot > REset this PC.
4. Repair install is another option. To perform a repair istallation of Windows 11 using the Windows Media Creation Tool:

The following steps should be done on a working Windows computer:

Download the Windows Media Creation Tool from Microsoft's official website. https://www.microsoft.com/software-download/win... click on the "download now" button under "Create Windows 11 Installation Media"

Run the tool and select "Create installation media for another PC."

Choose "USB flash drive" as the media to use for the installation and select "Next."

Connect a USB flash drive with at least 8 GB of free space to your computer.

Select the USB flash drive you want to use, and then select "Next."

The tool will then download the required files and create the installation media.

=====================================================

Now these steps will  be done on your problematic computer:

Go to the USB drive via File Explorer, locate and run the Setup.exe file. Ideally, you should disconnect all USB and Bluetooth devices other than mouse and keyboard. Disable any 3rd party antivirus program. Disconnect the internet.

Once you run the Setup.exe file, choose the Install option, and the choose the option that keeps your files and apps.

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

• To reinstall all built-in apps, copy and paste the following command at the PowerShell window and press the Enter key.

        Get-AppXPackage | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$ ($_.InstallLocation)\\AppXManifest.xml"}
  

• Restart your PC and check if the apps are working properly.

Your Sincerely

Hahn - MSFT | Microsoft Community Support Specialist

I appreciate that mistakes can be made, and please do correct me if I'm wrong, but surely as a Microsoft Community Support Specialist you should realise that this PowerShell is not correct? If you run this, you will receive the following:

This is because you have included an unnecessary space after -Register. For your second example, this should read as:

Get-AppXPackage | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\\AppXManifest.xml"}

Running this will actually result in app deployments rather than a screen full of red stating that the file location does not exist - in this case, the only failures should come from resources that are being used by currently open apps:

Hope that helps.

Hello CristobalAlarcon,

I am Jaspreet Singh.

Please follow these steps:

Download the media creator tool from here : https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-downlo...

Install it on your system and run it.

When asked click on upgrade this PC Now.

Follow the steps on the tool and it should install Microsoft store.

Open Start, type: powershell

Right click PowerShell

Click Run as administrator

At the command prompt, type the following then hit Enter:

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

Exit Powershell then restart.

Check if you can open the Store.

If that does not work, you can try performing a repair upgrade:
