Microsoft store app error

Question

Greetings,

I just purchased a new laptop with Windows 11 home installed, and upon trying to install apps, I get the following error message:

"Try that again

Something happened on our end. Waiting a bit might help."

I've done everything from terminating, repairing, and restarting it. I went into CMD and typed,

wsreset.exe, to no avail.

After trying everything possible, shy of removing the store app via windows PowerShell, I

decided to remove the app.

The following is the code I used on PowerShell to remove the app:

Get-AppxPackage -allusers *WindowsStore* | Remove-Appxpackage​

I managed to remove the app using the above code, but reinstalling is another issue.

The following is the code I used on PowerShell to reinstall the app:

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

Unfortunately, I get an error on PowerShell using the above code.

I tried downloading the MS store app via the Microsoft website, but the installer did not work.

This is the first time this ever happened to me.

Any idea as to how i can reinstall the MS store app again?

Hi Omar,

Please open PowerShell (admin) and run this command:

get-appxpackage -allusers *windowsstore*

Post the output here. Also, please try the Store installer executable here:

Download and install Microsoft Store app on Windows

Let me know if that works.
