Solved Store apps failing to install in windows 10

[nnthemperor]

Guys any idea what could be returning the error message unable to install app? error code 0x80070006

At an elevated command prompt try wsreset.

Thanks bro. Searched online and did the reset.

Problem is back. Apps are failing to install with the useless error code. What if wrong with the windows store? There's always this problem with apps.
Tried clearing the windows store cache but that didn't work.

Try this. At an elevated powershell prompt type

Add-AppxPackage -register "C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.WindowsStore_8wekyb3d8bbwe\AppxManifest.xml" -DisableDevelopmentMode

and enter.

Thanks lees, but it says Add-AppPackage is not recognized as an internal or external command

 

[leeshor]

That was AppxPackage. Were you in powershell, not a command prompt?

Are these apps being installed on the C drive or SD Card?

 

[nnthemperor]

C drive

WSReset.exe is not solving the problem either. Do I have to reset Windows again? Just did that last month when I opted it off the insider preview

Were you ever able to run that powershell command successfully? If not, what error did you get?

There is another PS command to reget (essentially reset) all the apps.

No I couldn't run. Kept getting the error that it's not an internal or external command. Could you help with any other method?
