I Uninstalled Store

Question

Because my Store wasn't working, I opened the community tab and tried to get it to work. While doing that I uninstalled it and I can't get it back. Please how do I get it back??

Answer 1

Hi Daisyy,

From admin PowerShell, run the following command to reinstall Store:

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

If that doesn't help, follow 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.
