Windows store won't open - lack of PurgeCaches

Windows store opens always comes back to the start screen. When I opened, wsreset.exe, then I got this error message...

Windows cannot find ' ms-windows-store: PurgeCaches'. Make sure you typed the name correctly and then try again.

What should I do? Note that the store works in the different user account.

Execution of powershell ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted Add-AppxPackage-DisableDevelopmentMode-registry $Env:SystemRoot\WinStore\AppxManifest.xml to the command line (search-> Run-> cmd.exe) is the answer! I had this problem for months, and this fixed it finally. THANKS TO THAT FIGURED THIS OUT!

  • Windows store does not open (windows 8)

    So I've recently refreshed my laptop running Windows 8.1 and after refresh, he returned to windows 8. But now all gone metro apps and windows store does not open. When I click it, nothing happens.

    I tried various fixes, nothing worked! Help, please! My main concern is to upgrade to windows 10!  Right now I'm stuck with windows 8

    IM using the HP envy m6 laptop.

    Hi Alain,

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    When you do a Refresh: Applications that you have installed Web sites and DVD is deleted. The applications provided with your PC and applications that you have installed in the Windows store will be resettled. Windows puts a list of apps removed on your desktop after you refresh your PC.

    Because you want to upgrade to Windows 10, first, you need to update to Windows 8.1 of Windows 8 and then you can switch to Windows 10 Windows 8.1.

    Please refer to: Update Windows 8.1 of Windows 8

    Once you have updated Windows 8 to 8.1 Windows, please see the following article in order to upgrade to Windows 10 Windows 8.1.

    Hope this information is useful. Please feel free to answer in the case where you are facing in the future other problems with Windows.

  • Windows store does not open in Windows 8

    This may sound silly, but the original user that I had for my laptop has been removed. It was an accident, fortunately the other was an administrator. Anyway, everything was basically as except the apps are not installed, I tried the video application from the store back, so I clicked on the store and it crashed. I went on other questions about this problem and did the wsreset thing, and he said: ms-windows-store: PurgeCaches

    Is there any way to solve this problem? I don't think I can reset it because I didn't drive come with the laptop, unless I can use a USB key to do so.

    I found this on a thread for 8.1 - same problem - I'm not on 8.1 as I STORE THE COULD NOT OPEN (DUH), but I tried and IT WORKED.

    run the following in a command of re window - save the app Store:

    PowerShell - ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted Add-AppxPackage - registry DisableDevelopmentMode-$Env:SystemRoot\WinStore\AppxManifest.xml
    Not a single "Windows expert" posted this on any of the threads that I researched for months.
    Thank you for the excellent service, Microsoft...
  • Windows store won't load, or weather app so now.

    Just did an upgrade to Windows 8 Pro all seem to load fine, but all applications on the splash screen that are there by default will not seem to run. The cards seem fine. But when I click on the Windows store I just get t he Store Screen and the white circles moving never seems to load. Goes the same for the weather application and Sports as well now.  I am using a local account but have tried one by using a Microsoft account as well and did the same as well. Anyone else having these issues it is very frustrating...

    Thank you! Wreck

    OK, what fixed the issue I had with the Apps here does not which includes the Windows Store, etc... You will need to run the ' Refresh Your PC without affecting the files of your' you access this option by going to 'Settings of the PC' then to "general" it your will see this listed option. "." When you run this will remove some 3rd party like Adobe Reader etc. applications so you may need to reinstall these applications mainly desktop but it places a shortcut on your desktop, showing you what Apps it removed just in case you can not rememberber what you had on your machine.  After your machine is made with the 'Refresh' you will notice that it will set your home page to the new MSN which is nice and together as some of your default return parameters.   Install updates for Win8 then go to the App Store Windows and run the updates for the applications listed. Anyway everything should work from there and there is already attributed bonds Apps in the store.  Everything works Reals good as you need to go back and install a few things that got removed from the 'Refresh', but it should not take you long.      I hope this helps those who run on this issue... :)

    Thank you! Wreck

  • Windows store won't let me download Windows 8.1 - says I have to be an administrator, but I'm already!

  • Very old file won't open - lack of operands, etc.

    I have a file created in 1995.  It is stored on my hard drive since then and probably open one or twice since its inception.  I tried to open it earlier and I keep getting messages that say that he ran out of the operands and other such things.  The oldest backup version is a little more than a year and it's the same way.  I can see the full preview of it in the Finder, but when he opens up all I can see is maybe 5% of the objects that are in the file.

    Is it possible to recover it?  It would save me a TON of work if I could.

    My App Store won't open on my MacBook pro. Ball guard spinning.

    Howdy Dennis,

    How to test with another user account

    You can find out if unexpected behavior is related to the user file or a parameter in trying to reproduce the problem to a different user account. This process includes creating a new user account, connect to it and test for the issue.

    Create a test user account

    1. In the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
    2. Click the users and groups in the System Preferences window.
    3. Click the lock icon and enter an administrator name and password.
    4. Click on the button Add (+) below the list of users.
    5. Choose a type of user in the new pop-up menu.
    6. Give the user a name and first name, account name, and password.
    7. Click OK.
    8. Close the System Preferences window.

    If there are documents from your user account that you want to test with original, place a copy of these items in the shared folder in the users folder. Press the Option key while dragging a file in this folder to create a copy.

    Connect to the test user account

    Log out of your current user account by choosing logout in the Apple menu, and then open a session the new account that you created. If you are prompted to login with your iCloud or Apple ID account when you log in, skip this step.

    Try to reproduce the problem

    Try the same steps that caused the unexpected behavior to appear. For example, if you are unable to print, try printing from this user account. If you were unable to connect to the Internet, try to navigate on a website of this user account.

    If you use specific test settings depends on (for example using a specific e-mail account or an account iCloud) implemented the same test user account. For email and other parameters, you can use the Internet accounts pane in system preferences to set up these types of accounts. If your home folder files are necessary for tests, copy them into the shared folder in the users folder (/ Users/Shared). After you connect as a user test, copy these items to the same location in the test user home folder to test with.

    If a problem occurs in account only one user

    Is using the same steps in a user account test does not cause the same unexpected behavior, most likely you don't need to reinstall applications or OS X.

    • If a problem occurs only in a single application, check the documentation or Web site for instructions on troubleshooting specific preferences or the definition of the application files.
    • If you need help with a problem or a specific alert message, search the Apple support Web site for the text of the alert message you see.

    If a problem occurs in more than one user account

    If the same unexpected behavior occurs in more than one user account on your Mac, try checking for software or hardware problems.

    Take care.

    What antivirus software do you use?  Many are not compatible with WinMail.  See the link I cited above.  Try to remove your antivirus software and get something less invasive such as www.microsoft.com/security_essentials .  Then delete your e-mail account, close and reopen WinMail and then add your e-mail account back again to solve all the problems that caused the anti-virus products.  Then see if it works correctly then.
