    WSReset.exe is a troubleshooting tool designed to reset the Microsoft Store without changing account settings or deleting installed apps. Simply put, this executable clears the Microsoft Store cache.

    If you ever find the Microsoft Store isn’t working, or won’t download or update apps, this is how to fix it.

    In the Start Menu or Cortana, search for wsreset, and when it appears in the search results, right-click it and run it as an Administrator (this is very important)



    When WSReset.exe runs, it will open the Microsoft Store app. The Microsoft Store app screen will reset a couple times while the tool is emptying the app's cache and then it's done.



    When you have run WSReset.exe, you should then open the Microsoft Store app and check if the error's resolved.

    Thank you very much. After running the wsreset I get that I need a new application to open ms-store. Also in the application list is not the Windows store.

    Have you run the Windows Store troubleshooter tool from Settings -> Update & Security -> Troubleshoot.

    I ran the native Windows troubleshooter and another one I downloaded from Microsoft. Without success. Attached screenshots. Thank you very much.

    This post tells you how to get back Microsoft Store after uninstalling it accidentally using PowerShell.

    1. In the Cortana search bar, search for Windows PowerShell.

    2. Right click the correct result and select Run as administrator.



    3. Type the following command to reinstall Microsoft Store app, and then press Enter.

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


    If you get an error reinstalling, you’re either not running Windows PowerShell as an administrator, or you’ve incorrectly typed in the command from Step 3.

    After reading this from Microsoft:
    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/...-not-supported

    I thought it was impossible to reinstall the store. But I found this that worked:
    GitHub - kkkgo/LTSC-Add-MicrosoftStore: Add Windows Store for LTSC

    Now I have the Windows store running perfectly.

    Greetings and thank you.

    Glad it worked for you!

    What I don't understand, is that is the exact same command I supplied in my post #4 as outlined in your GitHub (2nd link). I have successfully ran that command from either the CMD Prompt or PowerShell as an administrator to fix the Windows Store Corruption.
