    I have followed every single one of the steps but no issues were found with the integrity of the system and windows store, yet the problem persists. A reboot seems to fix it temporarily but it comes back randomly after some use.

    This worked for me!!!!

    I've been struggling since Spring of 2018 trying to get my Windows Store back.  3 other users on my laptop had it, except for me! The admin.  I was like WTF.  

    your process got it back for me just fine!  Thank you so much!!

    Hello,

    Please try these steps:

    1. Close all apps first.
    2. Open administrative Windows PowerShell by right click on Start Button and select Windows PowerShell (Admin).
    3. Type/paste following and press Enter key:

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

    1. Let the command complete so that all apps are re-registered. See if this resolves the issue.

    Hope this helps!
