Hi, Where is the search feature of Microsoft Store ? how can I find and install an app from it there is no way to search.

Here you can see how it looks like (restarting the PC does not help) :

Windows for home | Windows 11 | Microsoft Store

    I am having the same problem. I think there is a big bug where the search bar is not showing up anymore. Here is my window:

    I just reinstalled Windows 11 today, November 10, 2023. I'm missing the search box. When I enter the commands you posted in powershell, I get a lot of error messages. It doesn't fix the problem.

    This is what you should see.

    Did you click on the Apps icon?

    Hi, I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    The search box should be on the top bar to the right of the 'Microsoft Store' text.

    Try this method to re-install the Store app.

    Open PowerShell as Administrator, then run this command and press Enter:

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

    When that completes, run this command and press Enter:

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

    Close PowerShell when that completes, then restart (not shut down) your PC.
