cannot access my user account in windows 10 after running windows-repair

<< < (2/2)

Boggin:
If you Google for how do I create a win 10 iso from your India location, you should see a link for a Microsoft download link which should give it for your language.

There is a default checked box which will download the applicable version for which you have on your machine.

it seems that the same ISO (HOME X64 ENGLISH) can be used to install single-language edition too. i found out that installing 2 latest KB's shows the option to retain the files and settings. many thanks, BTW.

but the repair installation did not solve my problems. as i had mentioned earlier, i was able to recover my account, but the windows store app and UWP apps are not working due to messed up permissions of the corresponding folder. any solution to reset that particular folder and its permissions to factory defaults, without having to clean-install? i tried tweaking-windows-repair, but it says that for 20h2, that fix is not available. :(

Boggin:
Sorry for the late reply but your post was waiting to be approved so didn't show up as a latest post.

I'm unsure as to which repair WR said it couldn't fix for 20H2 - can you post your repair log.

There is an option to access those from the main UI of WR.

I've just ran the full repairs on this 20H2 and other than the Win 8/10 App repair which is skipped, all report as being done.

I've come across this article which may resolve your App Store problem - https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/5-tips-fix-windows-store-app-issues-windows-10/

As an alternative to a clean install, in the advanced boot options there's an option to Reset where you can retain your personal files but it will remove all 3rd party programs, so you would need to reinstall those.
