Tons of Issues post-update

Hi guys,

I'm having a ton of issues and I think my windows 11 is pretty corrupt. Wondering if there's a way to fix without doing a full reinstall.

Calculator doesn't open, snipping tool doesn't open, which led me to try to reinstall them from the Store. The Store app opens but just spins and never loads.

Trying to do repairs - it appears as though the BITS service is corrupt. The store is corrupt. I get "Service registration is missing or corrupt" when I run troubleshooter on both.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi and welcome to the forum,

This might be the way to go, a repair install

I've had to do it before and it works
HTH

I agree with Jeff. The other way is with the DISM commands shout if you help with them

Run the following commands - one at a time - using Windows Terminal / Powershell / Command Prompt in Administrator Mode -

sfc /scannow
dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth
dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth
dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

and then reboot your device.

If the issues still persist, run a repair install as per the link offered by BunnyJ

@IanMosley thanks for posting the DISM commands, I was on my other machine and didn't have them to hand

Thanks for the help so far guys.

The sfc/ scannow returns issues in a file but cannot fix everything (looking at the log file it seems that most of the problems it cannot fix are because it can't connect to the Store).

When I try to run the mediaCreation tool for either the ISO or the USB of Windows 11, I get an error "We're not sure what happened... Error code: 0x80080005 - 0x90018".

You can download the ISO from here

That sounds too complicated for me, so over to the guys

Was able to download the ISO direct - woops.

Did the repair install and Store / snipping tool are still broken.

I'm out of ideas.. sorry

Hi,
Saw OldMike on tenforums showing an error just updating
Sounds like a ms server issue today could be regional ?

Possibly. My BITS didn't work on either install. The Store seems to be loading now at least.

BITS still throws an error when I try to troubleshoot it: Error 2388526088. I'm pretty sure BITS is used to install things from the Store.

When SFC cannot fix everything this is usually because the the files in component store it would use for repairs are also corrupt.

Run the DISM RestoreHealth option to repair the component store (you'll need to be online so it can download new files) then run SFC again.

Hi,
Yeah the ritual are these

Have you tried re-installing MS Store using this MS procedure ?

Welp I'm back on 10. I tried everything short of returning the laptop - seems to be working smoothly so I'll just stick with this until 11 is more stable. Thanks again for your suggestions guys.
