Reinstall and Re-register Apps in Windows 10  

Yuudachi said:

Its the Microsoft.GetHelp app -- so it should, right?

It should.

Yuudachi said:

Thanks!

You're most welcome. Please let us know how it went.

Yuudachi said:

it didn't work -- Microsoft.GetHelp was not reinstalled

Get-AppXProvisionedPackage -online | Select PackageName does not list it

Sorry to hear that. Are you able to use option 3 to reinstall the "Get Help" app from the Microsoft Store?

Yuudachi said:

Yeah, but running sysprep gives me an error, so I have to remove it.

I'll bump @Kari to see if he may be able to take a look at this when he's able since he's a lot more familiar with sysprep.

Long thread, I am not sure what's the issue. Asking @Yuudachi to post details of the issue.

• What app was accidentally deleted?
• What has been done?
• What has sysprep to do with this?
• What is the goal, what do you want to achieve?

Hello mate,

Just to verify, did you run the command in a command prompt and not in PowerShell?
