Hello,
Since my Microsoft Store was no longer working, I wanted to uninstall it and I managed to uninstall everything.
The problem is when I go into PowerShell and do the manipulation to reinstall Microsoft Store, it doesn't work
Get-AppxPackage *Microsoft.WindowsStore* | Remove-AppxPackage
Get-AppxPackage -allusers Microsoft.WindowsStore | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
It writes all this without me being able to actually install it (see Photo link)
If there is any possibility of not doing a reset because I don't want to lose all the applications on my PC

@benji05: have you followed the instructions?
That is to say: Repair Windows 10 without data loss.
Then when it's done,
right-click on the Start menu and then Windows PowerShell (admin)
then:
Do you have an error message?
If not, check the Start menu to see if Windows Store is there.

Hello.
In Windows PowerShell (admin), type or copy/paste this command line:
Add-AppxPackage -register "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.WindowsStore_2015.8.3.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\AppxManifest.xml" -DisableDevelopmentMode

Hello,
To reinstall the Microsoft Store, as well as to ensure that the apps are updated, it is imperative that the Windows firewall is active.
Otherwise, you need to disable automatic updates for the apps, which can uninstall themselves and fail to reinstall afterward because the Windows firewall is disabled and prevents them from being reinstalled.
I don’t know if this is your problem.
To uninstall the Microsoft Store:
Type the following command: Get-AppxPackage *windowsstore* | Remove-AppxPackage
To then reinstall the Microsoft Store
Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers| Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml”}

Hello,
I followed your recommendation to reinstall Windows 10 without data loss.
But I still don't have the Windows Store.
Thank you for your help.

Apparently he is there, restart this command line:
Get-AppxPackage -allusers Microsoft.WindowsStore | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
Get-AppxPackage -allusers Microsoft.WindowsStore | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
"AppXManifest.xml missing error or 0x80073CF6"
I will make a video by tomorrow, if that can help.

Good evening,
I tried your method: using PowerRun which grants System rights and with Multi Commander which executes commands as the System user, but I still can't get it to work.
I think I may have made mistakes in the manipulations.
Could you explain to me how this method works (clearly if possible)?
Thank you in advance.

Actually, the Windows 10 repair with the ISO + the re-registration should work:
If you don't get any errors, then the Windows Store app is back.
Check the Start menu.
Get-AppxPackage -allusers Microsoft.WindowsStore | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"} If you don't get any errors, then the Windows Store app is back.
Check the Start menu.
It must be believed that it comes from the iso file; it can also be created using the Microsoft tool.
You forgot to type the command cd\ earlier, but anyway it’s no longer necessary to redo those commands, rather do a left click on the Windows logo on the taskbar and check if Microsoft Store is present in the menu or on the home page, in that case right-click on it -> More or Pinn to the taskbar
However, it is indeed located in C:\Program Files (or Programmes)\WindowsApps\
Redo this command line:
Get-AppxPackage -allusers Microsoft.WindowsStore | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
If that doesn't work type wsreset
Redo this command line:
Get-AppxPackage -allusers Microsoft.WindowsStore | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}
If that doesn't work type wsreset
Left-click on the Windows logo, then type cmd, Command Prompt will appear, click on Run as administrator
In the command prompt window, type dir *WindowsStore* /s /p
In the command prompt window, type dir *WindowsStore* /s /p
