Citrix Optimizer removed Windows Store - how to Recover/Install Windows Store and MicrosoftWindows.Client.CBS...

[Robert Madrian]

Hello,

it seems that some time ago I removed windows store and MicrosoftWindows.Client.CBS with citrix optimizer - now I wasn't able to install windows security updates since february - maybe because of the missing MicrosoftWindows.Client.CBS folder under C:\Windows\SystemApps... (Error in C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\cbs.log)

is ther a possibilty to recover/re-install windows store and other SystemApps?

Did you do the backup inside optimizer before you ran it?  You can use that to attempt a rollback, but in all honesty, I usually have had to rebuild.

and a Windows Repair with iso is not a solution?
I have four master iamges with that problem and a complete rebuild is a lot of work :-(
