Can't install any apps.

Shows downloading, then installing and then fails at the end. Saying "Well, this is embarrassing (see details)."

Details show "We can't find the app. error code 0x80070002"

It literally happens with any app I try to download. None will install.

Any help?

I had the same problem yesterday. This may seem stupid, but rebooting helped for me :/
And otherwise, try using the wsreset.exe tool and reboot again.

Windows + x

And write this:

PowerShell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Command “&" {$manifest = (Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.WindowsStore).InstallLocation + ‘\AppxManifest.xml’ ; Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $manifest}”

And restart your computer.

This solved my issue with de Store.

Thanks but didn't work.

Found a solution finally. Though it's really just a workaround at this point. Try this:

Switch your account over to a local account. Once done, go back to the store and install what you need to install. Then you can switch back to a Microsoft account again.

It's annoying but it works.

There are 3 double quotes in your command. That can't be right!

I beleive this is the correct one...

PowerShell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted -Command "& {$manifest = (Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.WindowsStore).InstallLocation + '\AppxManifest.xml' ; Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $manifest}"
