Can’t you type anything in your Windows 10 search bar. Don’t worry, any one of these methods will work for you:
Method 1:
Open the command Prompt (Admin) – (Windows Key + X)
Then copy this command 1 and paste it there:
Command 1:

PowerShell -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted
Now enter the below command and hit Enter key:

Please be care in copying these commands. Hit ‘Enter’ key after entering it. Then copy this Command 2, paste there and hit the ‘Enter’ key:
Command 2:

Get-AppXPackage -AllUsers |Where-Object {$_.InstallLocation -like /”*SystemApps*/”} | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register /”$($_.InstallLocation)//AppXManifest.xml/”}

This will fix your problem.

Method 2:
Open the run window and enter this command:
C://Windows//system32//ctfmon.exe
Click ‘OK’. That’s all. Check whether it is fixed.

Method 3:
Open Task manager (CTRL+Shift+ESC) as described in this video.
Click ‘File’ and then ‘Run New Task’. Make sure you have a check mark towards “Create this task with administrative privileges”. Now type “Powershell”. Hit ‘O.K’
Type the following command in the Powershell prompt:

$manifest = (Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.WindowsStore).InstallLocation + ‘//AppxManifest.xml’ ; Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register $manifest

Reboot the computer after closing the PowerShell windos. Check if it helps.
