How to Download Microsoft Store App in Windows 10/11

If the Microsoft Store program is not installed on your Windows 10 or 11, you can easily learn how to install it by reading this article.

What is Microsoft Store?

The latest version of the Windows operating system is incomplete without the Microsoft Store. Microsoft Store, also known as Windows Store, is an online store where users can buy Microsoft products (such as Xbox consoles, Surface personal computers, tablets, etc.) or software. Download their favorite programs and games from this store.

Like all Microsoft programs, the Microsoft Store may have problems. For example, some Windows 10 users have reported that the Microsoft Store was deleted from their computer after upgrading their operating system to Windows 11. In some cases, the installation of updates affects the performance of the Microsoft Store and causes this program to either not work well or not open.

If the Microsoft Store is not shown in the list of programs in Windows 10 or 11 and you cannot even find it in the search results, in this tutorial, we will provide you with two different methods to reinstall this program on Windows, which is your problem.

Method 1: Re-register or install Microsoft Store using PowerShell.

One of the reasons for deleting the Microsoft Store is that the program is damaged or corrupted. In such cases, we can use Powershell to reinstall it.

* Note: This method can be used when the Microsoft Store installation packages are not lost or damaged. If the program installer packages are corrupted, use the second method to reinstall Microsoft Store.

1- Open Windows PowerShell as Administrator. To do this, click on the Start menu and type PowerShell in the search bar. Then click on Run as Administrator.

2- In the PowerShell window, copy and paste the following command and press Enter:

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

3- After executing the command above, restart your computer.

4- When the device restarts, check whether the Microsoft Store has been restored. If you still did not see this program, follow the next step so that you can install all internal programs and Microsoft Store in Windows.

5- Open PowerShell as Administrator and enter this command to reinstall all Windows Store programs:

Get-AppXPackage -allusers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml”}

6- Wait until the order is completed. Then close Powershell and restart the computer. In this way, the Microsoft Store should be restored.

*Note: If, for any reason the Powershell command is not executed, or the Microsoft Store still does not exist after restarting the computer, it means that the Appx packages required to install the MS Store are damaged and corrupted. You should use the second method to solve the problem in such cases.

Second method: Install Microsoft Store using Installer Packages

In this method, we will teach you how to install Microsoft Store even if all or some of the installer packages required for its installation (called “Appx packages”) are damaged or missing.

Step 1: Download the required packages to install Windows Store.

Go to store.rg-adguard.net to download Microsoft Store installer packages.

* Note: The site store.rg-adguard.net is an online link generator for downloading Microsoft Store applications for users who cannot download their applications through this store.

Step 2: Paste the following link in the search box that appears on the site page:

Step 3: Select Retail from the drop-down menu and click the Tick button to create a direct download link.

Step 4: Scroll down to see all direct download links for all Microsoft Store installers.

Step 5: Now download all four installation packages listed below:

Important points:

1- Make sure that the “.appx” extension is included at the end of all packages, except for the “WindowsStore” package, which has the “.appxbundle” extension. ends

2- If you plan to install Microsoft Store on 32-bit Windows, download the x86 versions of the packages mentioned above.

3- If you cannot download the file after clicking on the packages, right-click on them and select Save as an option.

Step 6: Install Microsoft Store.

Once you have downloaded all the installation packages, install them one by one in the order they were downloaded (“*WindowsStore*.appxbundle” should be the last package).

After installing all packages, check whether Windows Store works on your system. If Windows Store is still having problems, go to the next step.

Step 7: Completely uninstall and reinstall WINDOWS STORE using POWERSHELL.

Open PowerShell As Administrator and enter the following command to remove Microsoft Store (Windows Store):

Get-AppxPackage *windows store* | Remove-AppxPackage

Now install all the downloaded Microsoft Store installer packages using this command.

Add-AppxPackage -Path “x:\Path\filename.appx”

important points:

1- Replace x:\Path\filename.appx in the path and file name of the package you want to install.

2- Don’t forget to install the latest version of “WindowsStore .appxbundle”. For example: To install the “Microsoft.NET.Native.Framework” package, you must follow the following steps:

In the PowerShell window, after Add-AppxPackage -Path, press CTRL + V to replace the copied path. Press Enter when the command looks like the following:

Add-AppxPackage-Path “C:\Users\username\Downloads\Microsoft.NET.Native.Framework.2.2_2.2.29512.0_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe.appx”

Step 8: After installing all 4 packages you downloaded, Microsoft Store will return to your Windows.

* Note: If you encounter the message “Deployment failed with HRESULT: 0x80073D02, The package could not be installed because resources it modifies are currently in use” while installing the packages, ignore it and continue installing the next package. The package that gave the error is still valid, and other programs on the computer can use it (this error happens a lot when installing the “VCLibs” package).
