Microsoft Store missing in Windows 11/10
The missing app problem in Windows 11/10 can be solved, and you can get back all the apps that come default with Windows 11/10. We would request you to go through the steps elucidated below and recover the missing applications by using an elevated Windows Powershell prompt.
1. First things first, download the file Reinstall-preinstalledApps.zip from Microsoft and extract the contents of the folder. Ensure that the file Reinstall-preinstalledApps.zip is in the following directory:
C:\Users\yourusernamehere\Downloads
2. In the PowerShell prompt that you have opened as an administrator, enter this command and hit Enter:
Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted
If it asks you to change the execution policy, press Y and hit Enter.
3. Without exiting Power Shell, enter the following command now:
cd C:\Users\YourUserName\Downloads
This command will take you to the location where the PowerShell script is. Note that you need to replace the " YourUserName " in the command with your actual Windows account username. Now all you need to do is enter the command below and hit "Enter":
.\reinstall-preinstalledApps.ps1 *Microsoft.WindowsStore*
4. If you have followed the step mentioned above without any deviations, you should be able to find the Windows Store on your Windows, but before doing that, we would suggest you reset your Windows Store using WSReset.exe.
This will reset the Windows Store cache, and just in case we would also advise you to pin the Windows Store to your taskbar or the start menu.
5. Once you have done the job, re-enable enforcement for signed PowerShell scripts by typing executing the Set-ExecutionPolicy AllSigned command.
