    Some core apps like store etc not working


    Hi,
    I am experiencing issues with some core apps alike store, calculator, contacts etc. The live tile is showing these apps with title like @{Microsoft.WindowsStore_2015.... etc.
    I tried to reinstall the apps via admin powershell but it stops with error

    Add-AppxPackage : Deployment failed with HRESULT: 0x80073CF6, Package could not be registered.
    Merge Failure : error 0x80070003 : Cannot register the Microsoft.WindowsStore_2015.25.5.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe package because there was a merge failure with the following file: C:\Program

    Hi, the only known way currently is to do an in-place repair install. The powershell command that used to be used to reinstall/re-register these now breaks them in build 10586.

    This has been repeatedly encountered and reported here.
    Please see:
    Repair Install Windows 10 with an In-place Upgrade - Windows 10 Forums
    - will disable system restore
    - will keep all progs & data
    - may lose the odd association
    - may need to reconnect WiFi

    Or of course restore a known good image :)
