HELP ALL MICROSOFT APPS WONT OPEN

[Pavendaxx]

I was trying to fix microsoft store at the first place but ended up breaking up everything. But all I did was reset the microsoft store and now everything doesnt work.

Apps that doesnt work : Microsoft Store, Your Phone, Realtek Audio Console, Mail, Xbox, Calculator, Calendar, Alarms And Clock, Get Help, Feedback Hub, Snip And Sketch, Movies And TV, Photos.

Almost every windows bloatware is not working except other 3rd party apps.

Check Event Viewer Software tab for crash logs. Other than that, with this little information all I can suggest is reinstalling windows.

try doing a system restore if it worked earlier recently...just type system restore in the start menu and do a system restore to the earliest possible (click the "show more restore points to get earlier ones)

 

like everything was fine a week back but now some issue came up randomly with the store

Yesterday everything was fine but after this update it broke the microsoft store. But somehow after update it delete the restore point. 

This is what I got from Windows Event Viewer

the restore point could have been deleted if you have done a disk cleanup after the update

 

here is a few things you could try

1.try running an antivirus

2.try doing an image backup (if you made one earlier)

3.try the system restore once again

4.try a windows reset

5.at last...you have to do an OS resintallation

Ah mann.... this is absolute dizaster, I cant do a fresh windows Installation. Because I have alot of vst plugins, sketchup plugins, after effects plugins It will be a pain in the ass if I should Install those plugins one by one.

Does updating the Windows with Windows Update Assistant will fix the problem?

There might be a way to fix this with DISM but I am not entirely sure and if this was my system I wouldnt bother, I would cut my losses and do a reinstall. Before someone suggests running a SFC /scannow, know that that it only scans for broken files and not fix them.

Have you tried the PowerShell command to reinstall the Microsoft Apps?
Open PowerShell as admin and run this command:

Get-AppXPackage *WindowsStore* -AllUsers | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

Ok now I know why my restore point is gone

 

[Pavendaxx]

I can't create restore point. Everytime I did it, it always show an error message. So I'm trying to fix it by running chkdsk using CMD. But that doesnt work, after the PC restart and run the chkdsk, it only scanning and repairing without showing the progress and it just proceed to booting the windows going straight to the login screen. I tried another method which is using windows powershell, but the result is the same it doesn't show the progress like usuaally, so I tried using the disk C propertis > tools > Error Checking > Check. Same result PC restart scanning and repairing drive C but it don't do anything the progress is not shown and proceed to boot.

Also my previous restore points are gone.

I'm thinking about updating the windows version from 20h2 to 21h1. Will it fix the problem?

No, your issue might be hardware related.

I have been having a similar problem. I didn't try system restore though. I guess it started after a power failure during windows update (My UPS battery was dead). I had to roll back the update. From then onwards while booting it tries to repair the C: drive often but doesn't do anything.

open a cmd window with administrator rights.

type sfc /scannow 

This runs system file check, it will look for and try to replace corrupted system files

it may fix the problem.

I have done a surface test on the disk and one of the sectors was bad (Yes, just one. Fingers crossed). Maybe that was causing the problem. Hopefully more sectors don't start going bad. It is a relatively new 1TB disk.

I will try that if that bad sector was not the cause of this.

@Pavendaxx I have merged your 2 threads together since it seems to be all related to the same problem.
