Are you one of the IT pros that uninstall all or some of the built-in apps in Windows 10 and now changed your mind? This is how you remove them and get them back with PowerShell!
Remove an app
Get-AppxPackage *windowsmaps* | Remove-AppxPackage
Remove the provisioned app
Get-AppxProvisionedPackage -Online | ? {$_.DisplayName -like “*maps*” } | foreach { Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage -PackageName $_.PackageName -Online }
List all Provisioned apps, and locations, these are possible to reinstall
Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers | Select Name, PackageFullName, InstallLocation
Reinstall/Register all apps
Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers| Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml”
Reinstall/Register one app
Get-AppxPackage *windowsmaps* -AllUsers | foreach { Add-AppxPackage -Register “$($_.InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml” -DisableDevelopmentMode }
Store or apps crashing or do not start?
Try the built-in troubleshooting wizards
Also keep WSReset.exe in mind if you have problem opening Microsoft Store or an app. Just run WSReset in an elevated command prompt.
