Windows 10 App Store does not open, for that matter no app store apps open at all

I ran the following in Powershell and received the following answer:

C:\WINDOWS\system32>PowerShell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Command "& {$manifest = (Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.WindowsStore).InstallLocation + ?\AppxManife
st.xml? ; Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $manifest}"
Add-AppxPackage : Deployment failed with HRESULT: 0x80073CF6, Package could not be registered.
error 0x80070490: Cannot process the AntaraSoftware.AlarmClockHD_5.6.0.0_x64__7jhd16s0b93qm package because the following error was encountered while

NOTE: For additional information, look for [ActivityId] aa21e529-7a17-0003-7c69-22aa177ad101 in the Event Log or use the command line Get-AppxLog
