Microsoft Edge totally broken, powershell etc not working [Windows - Microsoft Community


so deleted this, , cleaned trash can.

c:\windows\systemapps\microsoft.microsoftedge_8wekyb3d8bbwe

when hit windows key , write edge still pops (the icon), when clicking it not open. want re-install not working me. used in powershell:

get-appxpackage -allusers -name microsoft.microsoftedge | foreach {add-appxpackage -disabledevelopmentmode -register "$($_.installlocation)\appxmanifest.xml" -verbose}

which gave me this:

add-appxpackage : cannot find path 'c:\appxmanifest.xml' because not exist.
@ line:1 char:68
+ ...  | foreach {add-appxpackage -disabledevelopmentmode -register "$($_.i ...
+                 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + categoryinfo          : objectnotfound: (c:\appxmanifest.xml:string) [add-appxpackage], itemnotfoundexcep
    + fullyqualifiederrorid : pathnotfound,microsoft.windows.appx.packagemanager.commands.addappxpackagecommand

so i'm screwed , nothing works



hi,

if using account having issues edge, can omit -allusers parameter, , try running command again in powershell. make sure run powershell administrator. command be:

get-appxpackage -name microsoft.microsoftedge | foreach {add-appxpackage -disabledevelopmentmode -register “$($_.installlocation)\appxmanifest.xml” -verbose}

if issue persists, use system file checker tool (sfc.exe) , deployment image servicing , management (dism.exe) repair windows installation. steps on how use these tools, kindly refer following link: system file check (sfc) scan , repair system files & dism fix things sfc cannot.

let know how goes assist further.

keeps saying 

add-appxpackage : cannot find path 'c:\appxmanifest.xml' because not exist.
@ line:1 char:58
+ ...  | foreach {add-appxpackage -disabledevelopmentmode -register “$($_.i ...

    + fullyqualifiederrorid : pathnotfound,microsoft.windows.appx.packagemanager.commands.addappxpackagecommand

did solve problem?

sorry didn't help.


it seems package installer pointing wrong location. let's use absolute location of edge installation folder. kindly run following command on elevated powershell:

add-appxpackage -register "c:\windows\systemapps\microsoft.microsoftedge_8wekyb3d8bbwe\appxmanifest.xml" -disabledevelopmentmode -verbose

keep updated results.

youtube has no solutions either, looked on forums page kind of issue , don't see

did solve problem?

sorry didn't help.


let's check if there still trace of old edge on system. on elevated powershell window, type following commands:

get-appxpackage -name *microsoft.microsoftedge*

get-appxpackage -name *microsoft.microsoftedge* -alluser

these commands check if microsoft edge still in system , display information edge including install location. kindly include result of these commands in reply.

if these commands yield no results, suggest restore system restore point. can use system restore if have restore points before edge folder deleted. restore, refer restore system restore point section in following link: recovery options in windows 10.

if not have applicable restore points in pc, recommend reset pc. resetting lets choose whether keep files or remove them, , reinstalls windows. more information, refer reset pc section in previous link.

let know how goes assist further.
